Mayor Glass
Wayne Clark, Petaluma, spoke about the various individuals representing the public on the State
and County level.
Zen Destiny, Petaluma, he stated that the Republicans' and Democrats' relationship with the tea

bicycle baths and 101 and Petaluma Boulevard South interchange.
Katherine Bobrowski, Petaluma, thanked Mayor Torliatt for coming to all the Relays for Life

Discussion and Possible Action Regarding Council Vacancy. (Brown)
Mayor Glass
Public Comment on Item 4.0
Robert Ramirez, Petaluma, encouraged the Council to appoint Jason Davies to fill
the vacancy on Council.
Zen Destiny, Petaluma, asked that the Council not punt the issue to a special
election, and said, "Don't hide behind the citizenry to avoid a difficult decision."
Heidi Rhymes, Petaluma, suggested that the Charter be amended to say that a
vacancy would be filled by the next highest vote -getter. Until then, she
encouraged the Council to appoint
Jason Davies to fill the vacancy.
Dave Libchitz, Petaluma, said half an hour ago he had a different speech and
stated he is not a "happy camper." He suggested appointing the fourth place
finisher because it gives the public a voice.
Tom Brown, Petaluma, told Council his wife says his tombstone will say "Ever
Hopeful." He said he would like to see Jason Davies appointed to the vacant
seat.
Allen Pendley, Petaluma, spoke in support of Jason Davies for the appointment.
Bill Phillips, Petaluma, read from the Economic Development Strategy Plan and
the importance of technology and communications jobs and spoke of Jason
Davies and his qualifications for the vacant seat on Council.
Jerry Price, Petaluma, spoke in support of appointing Jason Davies.
January 3, 2011
Vol. XX, Page 1 1
1 Katherine Bobrowski, Petaluma, said that the Council should choose the
2 right person who will go out and investigate the problems and correct them.
3
4 Thom Butler, Petaluma, congratulated the newly elected and re-elected and
5 spoke in support of appointing Jason Davies.
Valerie Williams, Petaluma, said the people of Petaluma have already selected
the next member of Council, Jason Davies.
10
Victor Chechanover, Petaluma, said that as a great believer in democracy and
11
someone who did not vote for Jason Davies, he still believes that democracy
12
requires that you appoint Jason Davies as the next highest vote getter.
13
Moved by Teresa Barrett, seconded by Tiffany Renee.
14
Cecily Wallace, Petaluma, proposed to the Council that a special election should
15
not occur as the charter says the Council shall appoint someone to fill the seat.
16
She called upon the Mayor and Council to start the new year, a new
17
decade, with a new outlook and a new spirit of cooperation.
18
19
Dale Axelrod, Petaluma, said there were three options; an appointment of
20
someone other than Jason Davies, appoint Jason Davies, or continue in this 3/3
21
split. Despite what happened with Mayor's proposal for liaison appointments, he
22
still thought it possible to carry on as a six -person Council.
23
Vice Mayor Healy
24
Jason Davies, Petaluma, congratulated Mayor Glass and newly elected and re -
25
elected Council Members Albertson, Barrett, and Harris. He said he believes he
26
has needed skills for filling the Council vacancy.
27
Council Member Harris
28
John Hanania, Petaluma, he said he came down to see how everyone would get
29
along, and frankly, he was disappointed. He said a special election will not do
30
the City any good. He further stated that each member of Council is different,
31
but they need to work together to accomplish anything.
32
Council Member Barrett
33
34
Motion: Approve Appointment of Jason Davies to complete the unexpired
35
Council Member term, expiring December 31, 2012.
