Tonight (March 9), the Twentynine Palms City Council will gather to address several agenda items. The meeting will kick off with a presentation by Dr. James Danoff-Burg on the Living Desert Zoo and Garden Community Conservation.

The council will discuss the purchase of two properties within the borders of Project Phoenix to be used for parking. Both properties would be purchased for $25,000 each plus closing costs, not to exceed $55,000.

Contract amendments for City Manager Frank Luckino will also be discussed. The personnel committee consisting of Mayor Daniel Mintz and Mayor Pro-Tem Karmolette O’Gilvie has recommended adjustments totaling over $13,000.

After much input from residents, the council will, once again, take up the issue of vacation home rentals (VHR), weigh pros and cons, and consider a “cap” or limit on the number of VHR permits issued. The city currently has 114 active VHRs (primarily in the Hanson Tract) with 16 permit applications pending.

Tonight’s meeting will begin at 6 p.m. at City Hall, 6136 Adobe Road, and is available for livestreaming and on-demand at the City’s website, 29palms.org.
