The Twentynine Palms City Council will hold their regular meeting tonight (August 24) beginning at 6 p.m., but not at City Hall. The board has changed the venue of this week’s in-person meeting to the multi-purpose room of Twentynine Palms High School to accommodate for a crowd of people expected to weigh-in on a public hearing to consider the adoption of an urgency ordinance on vacation home rentals. If approved, the ordinance would establish a moratorium on acceptance of new vacation home rental applications as of August 25.
The board will also adopt the city’s Measure I Five-Year Plan for fiscal Years 2021/22 through 2025/26, award a $60,000 contract for the Twentynine Palms Safety Improvement for High Crash Unsignalized Intersections Project, and approve a resolution authorizing an application for funding and execution of a grant agreement for the CDBG Coronavirus Response Homekey Program.
