The chair called a special meeting of the Rosemead City Council and announced, "We are now going into closed session for public employee appointment," before recessing the meeting at 7:43 a.m.
The announcement gave no further public details about the personnel matter. Roll call conducted just before the recess recorded Council member Steven Lee, Council member Shandang, Council member Mark Clark, Mayor Pro Tempoi Lo and Mayor Sandra Amenza as present; the chair then thanked "Miss Hernandez." The transcript also records an ambiguous spoken date — "09/26/2026, or 2006" — which the council did not clarify on the record.
Closed sessions for personnel matters are typically held under the meeting rules that allow a governing body to discuss appointments or evaluations outside the public view; the transcript contains no motion text, vote tally, or additional staff presentation in open session. The meeting was recessed at 07:43 a.m. for the closed session and no return to open session or subsequent public action is captured in the provided transcript.
