Following a closed meeting, the Yucca Valley Town Council held its public meeting last night. Reporter Joshua King has the details on what was covered…
Prior to the start of the business part of the Yucca Valley Town Council meeting, council members heard a presentation from the San Bernardino County Fire Department about illegal fireworks in the county.
The council then recognized Bill Carter for 26 years of service to the town.
The meeting began with discussion surrounding the Tri-Valley Little League involvement in the T-Mobile Techover Contest, spurring a member of the public to voice their opposition, citing concerns about the dangers of 5G towers being built in town should they win the contest. A member of Tri-Valley Little League offered a counterpoint by stating that the Little League could use a stronger mobile network and the grant money from the contest.
The Town Council then approved a partial allocation of Measure Y funding totaling $45,000 towards local non-profit organizations. The Town then received and filed their staff’s report of their Special Revenue Funds for the fiscal year 2021-2022.
Next, a presentation was held for the Annual Animal Care and Control Report, which was subsequently received and filed by the Town Council. The meeting concluded with the acceptance of a bequest totaling $59,733.92 towards the Yucca Valley Animal Shelter from the trust of Jean Laurie Davis.
