City Council Meeting Highlights

Highlights from the June 18 City Council meeting:

• The City Council voted to temporarily prohibit bicycles, motorcycles, scooters, and all other two-wheeled vehicles from an approximately 2-mile stretch of Palos Verdes Drive South from Wayfarers Chapel to Schooner Drive due to land movement.
• The prohibition went into effect immediately to prevent injuries due to the poor condition of the roadway, where the land is moving at a rate of 7 to 12 inches per week.
• The Council will revisit the prohibition and consider whether to lift or extend it in six months.
• The City will continue pausing its humane peafowl trapping program in 2024 until a new count of peacocks and peahens is conducted in 2025. 
• The final City budget and Capital Improvement Program were approved for Fiscal Year 2024-25. Be sure to check the City website in the coming weeks for the Budget in Brief, an easy-to-read summary of the City’s $39.4 million balanced budget. The City remains fiscally strong with healthy reserves.
• The Council also approved an over $8.1 million Sheriff’s Department contract for the next fiscal year.
