COUNCIL-INITIATED ITEMS <br /> 9.1 Proclamation Declaring 2004 as the 25th Anniversary of the <br /> Hong Kong Ballet—Mayor Cheng <br /> MOTION SECONDED AND CARRIED: Moved by Kerr, seconded by Warshawsky and <br /> passed unanimously to approve the Proclamation"Declaring 2004 as the 25th Anniversary <br /> of the Hong Kong Ballet." <br /> 10. PRESENTATIONS FROM THE FLOOR <br /> OPENED PRESENTATIONS FROM THE FLOOR <br /> Steve Hubbell, Chair Public Education Committee, expressed his concern that the Los <br /> Altos School District is entertaining the option of a long-term lease for the Bullis School. <br /> This would eliminate the site as a possible solution to public education in Los Altos Hills. <br /> Hubbell requested that the Council schedule a special meeting to consider adoption of a <br /> resolution to initiate the process to reorganize the school boundaries in Town. The <br /> resolution could potentially act as an impediment to the District accepting a long term <br /> lease for the school site. Hubbell explained the redistricting process, noting that it would <br /> • require an election to redistrict the Town. <br /> City Attorney Steve Mattas explained that the Council had several options as a response <br /> to Hubbell's request: schedule the special meeting; schedule the resolution to a future <br /> regular Council meeting; or to take no action. Mattas noted that the under the Brown Act, <br /> a special meeting required a 24 hour notice. <br /> Hubbell added that if a special meeting is scheduled, the Public Education Committee <br /> would appreciate the Council agendizing the membership appointment to fill the vacancy <br /> on their Committee. <br /> Following Council discussion, Council agreed that the appointment could be placed on <br /> the May 20, 2004 Regular City Council Meeting agenda. <br /> Dan Alexander, Elena Road, thanked Council for their attendance at the recent fund raiser <br /> event sponsored by Supporters of Westwind Community Barn. He advised Council that <br /> the Board of Directors of Westwind would be seeking additional funds with their normal <br /> budget requests this year. <br /> Duncan MacMillan, Natoma Road, Public Education Committee member, explained that <br /> the Committee is very concerned that Los Altos School District is in active negotiation <br /> for a long-term lease. He hoped Council would consider scheduling the special meeting. <br /> • <br /> 7 City Council Meeting Minutes <br /> May 6,2004 <br />
