Residents raise utility assistance tips, need for community space and concerns about electronic harassment during Menifee public comment

During the public‑comment period, several speakers addressed the council on distinct community issues.

Adam Evantov, identified as a SoCalGas senior public affairs representative, encouraged residents to save on utility costs by lowering thermostats, checking weather stripping and visiting socalgas.com for rebates and assistance programs. "Why pay more on your utility bill than you have to?" Evantov asked, and he provided a customer service number and information about the medical baseline and customer assistance programs.

Nicola Drake, a Menifee small business owner and nonprofit volunteer, said the city lacks community space for programs and that the Menifee Library has turned away partners for lack of room. Drake asked the council to encourage alignment and collaboration between the city and the Menifee Union School District and to explore facility options for community partners. She named district staff she contacted in seeking collaboration and requested that the council help bridge the gap.

Moises Covarrubias raised concerns about what he described as "government weaponization and electronic harassment," referencing phenomena sometimes called "voice to skull," "remote neuro monitoring" and frequency‑wave attacks. He urged awareness and pointed attendees to resources such as targetedjustice.com; no city official provided a factual response during the comment period.

Lupe Jenkins offered seasonal greetings during remarks earlier in the public‑comment block.

The council did not take action on these public comments during the meeting; the Brown Act limits council response during non‑agendized public comment.
