The Santa Rosa City Council members will be selecting the applicant to fill the vacant city council seat Jan. 28th. The link below will take you to the timeline for the application process and the interviews.
http://ci.santa-rosa.ca.us/doclib/Documents/City%20Council%20Vacancy%20-%20Website%20Posting.pdf
The interviews and selection process for the new council member is scheduled for Monday, January 28 and it is open to the public. I think the council decided to begin it at 5:00PM. The public will not be permitted to ask questions during the meeting but can submit questions prior to the event.
The names of the applicants will be posted after the application closing date of January 22.
Each candidate will be allotted 15 minutes. This time will include a candidate statement and questioning by council members.
Probably more info than you need to know, but we probably should understand how our new city council member will be selected and please do attending the meeting if you can. We need to show the city council we care about what goes on in Santa Rosa at out council.

Lunch and guest speaker :
Catharine Baker
NOT TO BE MISSED!
Catharine is OF Counsel at Hoge Jones & Appel in Pleasanton, CA, where she Practices business litigation. In 2010 she was pro bono Campaign Council and manager of special projects for David Harmen for Congress. In that capacity she oversaw the Harmer Campaign’s ballot integrity operations for all four counties within CD-11. David Harmer’s race was so close that it was one of the last races in the country to be called nearly 4 weeks after the election. Catharine authored two articles for the campaign, entitled “Ballot Integrity: Observations and Concerns” and “Restoring Ballot Integrity”. These articles raised awareness of the weakness in California’s election system and serve as a blueprint for much-needed reforms to California’s election law. [click to continue…]

What do you associate most with parks, besides the jungle gyms for the kids? Maybe the picnic tables and benches under the trees? Or a quenching drink from the water fountains on a hot day? Well.

At the Santa Rosa City Council Study Session on the Budget last week, the Council was told by Capital Improvement Program (CIP) and Parks and Recreation officials that it would be better to “remove than replace drinking fountains and picnic tables” in various parks around the city in order “to save $600K over 4 years.
