The Ukiah City Council held its regular meeting on July 2, 2025, focusing on various agenda items and community engagement. The meeting began with a call for public comments, but no members of the public chose to speak at that time.

Following the public comment period, the council moved to approve a recommended action, which was confirmed to include the removal of a specific item from the agenda. The motion received unanimous support from all council members present, including Council Member Rodent, Council Member Chris, Council Member Rodosco, Vice Mayor Schur, and Mayor Crane.

The council then welcomed audience comments on non-agenda items, reminding attendees of the rules governing public participation. Members of the public were encouraged to limit their comments to three minutes each and to maintain decorum during the meeting. The council reiterated that comments on items not listed on the agenda could not lead to immediate action, in accordance with the Brown Act.

During the council reports segment, a member reported on the Inland Water and Power Commission (IWPC), noting that they are nearing the finalization of a water-sharing agreement involving Round Valley Indian Scribe and Sonoma County Water. The agreement is expected to be signed by mid-July. Additionally, the annexation ad hoc committees from the city and county met recently, where city representatives communicated their decision to reduce the scope of the proposed annexation area to allow for more community engagement.

The meeting concluded with no further public comments or raised hands from online participants, marking a structured and orderly session focused on community involvement and local governance.
