What happened

The council approved 16 routine items on consent, including a $100,000 contract with a mediator and $50,299 for emergency flood damage repair at Richmond Plunge.

The council unanimously agreed to sponsor the 2016 Soil Not Oil environmental conference at Richmond Convention Center scheduled for August 5-6. The conference focuses on environmental issues and sustainability.

Council members also directed staff to organize a workshop on new California mold legislation with Contra Costa County. The workshop will help the city learn how to implement state law SB 655 requiring cities to address mold problems in rental housing.

Discussion of hiring a firm for a full city organization audit was continued to a future meeting.
