Pacific council members raise neighborhood safety and worker concerns during Good of the Order

During the workshop’s Good of the Order portion, several council members raised community concerns for staff and council attention.

Council Member Petersen said he is concerned about children riding E‑bikes across the city and said he would like the city to create rules for their use. Council Member Jackson reported that a person performing utility locates in a right‑of‑way in her neighborhood had been hassled by residents and said she was upset because the worker was only doing their job. Council Member Katie Garberding raised a concern about EZEE Fiber workers performing work at her residence and brought the matter to the council’s attention. Council Member Helms noted that the 250th Celebration Committee has a display box in the hallway at City Hall.

The workshop minutes record these items as remarks under Good of the Order; none are recorded as motions or formal council direction in the workshop minutes. The session adjourned at 7:03 p.m.
