Speaker 0: Go. All right. So I believe that the next item that was pulled is item five F, and this is the final passage of the ordinance amend the Alameda Municipal Code, chapter 30 to modify accessory dwelling unit regulations to comply with state law and make other administrative, technical and clarifying amendments pertaining to please use centers definition as recommended by the planning board. So Councilmember de. So you, I believe, pulled this item, too.
Speaker 2: Yes. Thank you. I'll just say quickly, two weeks ago, when we first discussed this item, I indicated that I'd have to mull over it even more. And having done so, I want to first say from the outset, I appreciate the modifications that the city attorney's office had done with regard to partial housing units that are accessory dwelling units. Making that effort in light of how that aligns with or not. Chapter 26 of our City Charter, known as Measure A of 1973 or Measure A of 1990. So I appreciate that change, but I still have a larger concern having thought about it over the past two weeks. I still have a larger concern because I do believe the city of Alameda as a charter city, which means that it can create its own rules. As a charter city, I think there are still some issues that that that we can put forward. And as we have done so with Measure a, um, I, I get staff's reasoning that the state law in many respects supersedes local law, but I'm not altogether convinced that that's the case in the charter city situations. But I recognize that, you know, staff, counsel and perhaps the public might think otherwise. But for that reason I've decided that I will vote no on five f.
Speaker 0: Thank you, councilmember de. So do I have a motion approving of item five F move approval? Second, it's a move by the vice mayor, seconded by Councilmember o.T. A roll call vote, please.
Speaker 1: Councilmember de SAG.
Speaker 2: No.
Speaker 1: Not quite. I Odie. I Vela. I may or as he Ashcraft.
Speaker 0: I.
Speaker 1: That carries by five eyes.
Speaker 0: All right so now we have can experience 441. Um, now. Yeah, we've finished the consent calendar. Have we been able to get Miss Butler on to the. Into the meeting?
Speaker 1: No. Now, she was on via phone before and now it's saying she's locked out.
Speaker 0: So it's not locked out. But I if it's okay with the council, I will try to pinch hit for her. I have her data and there and we can take the. Okay, bear with us one moment, Miss Potter, because I believe we have to recess this meeting again. But I believe I have I'm just clairvoyant. And I think I've got a motion from the vice mayor that we recess in a second by Councilmember Vella.
Speaker 3: Correct? Correct.
Speaker 0: A right. Yes. All right. Roll call vote, please. Councilmember Odie, did you have a question?
Speaker 2: I just wonder if we might consider combining mind A with this since they're kind of on the same topic.
Speaker 0: Or is nine name my council referral?
Speaker 2: Yes.
Speaker 0: I think that's a good idea. I said, can we do that? No, no.
Speaker 2: My apologies for my muting the.
Speaker 0: Troublemakers.
Speaker 2: Because these are two separate meetings. I don't recommend all combine items across meetings.
Speaker 0: Okay. That's right. But I'll tell you what, after. No, that was a reasonable suggestion. After we hear this next item on the special meeting, perhaps it will answer some of the questions that we had on from 9 a.m. So with that, we've had the motion. We had the second. We didn't vote yet, did we? On this? We do. Okay. Let's do that.
Speaker 1: Councilmember de san.
Speaker 2: Yes.
Speaker 1: Not quite. Hi. Yeah. Bella. I may. Or as the Ashcroft. Yes. Okay. That carries by five s.
Speaker 0: All right. So then, um. With that. Miss Potter. You. The floor is yours. Okay. Good evening, Mayor. Members of the city council. I am going to behalf of Lois Butler and her economic development team. I'm going to present this item which came to us by way of a request from council.
