D.Comments bv the Public on Non-Aqenda ltems THE TIME ALLOWED PER NON-AGENDA ITEM FOR COMMENTS MADE BY THE PUBLIC IS LIMITED TO FIVE MINUTES. Public comment may only be made on matters within the Lodi City Council's jurisdiction (Government Code Section 54954.3, Lodi Citv Council Protocol Manual Section 6.31). The Council cannot take action or deliberate on items that are not on this aqenda unless there is an emeroencv and the need to take action on that emerqencv arose after this aoenda was posted (Government Code Section 54954.2(b)(2)). All other items mav onlv be referred for review to staff or placement on a future Council aoenda. Betty Wilson, member of the public, stated she spoke to Council previously about the need for an ordinance to address maintenance of large trees, particularly redwood trees. Staff responded to her that there are currently two ordinances addressing trees: one relates to hazards and one regarding maintenance, which she felt were insufficient. She requested the City research what other citíes are doing regarding regular upkeep and maintenance on trees. Many of the trees are too large for properties, they cause damage and inconveniences, and property owners cannot always work out their differences over the trees. The City's current ordinance states that a tree needs to be dead, diseased, or decayed; however, that does not translate to a tree being hazardous because they still drop limbs and pine needles. She requested that additional strength be added to the current ordinance to require maintenance every two years and that issues be handled on a complaint basis. Amanda Lee, member of the public, expressed appreciation for the work the Committee on Homelessness has done to try to remedy the homeless epidemic. She further expressed disappointment that none of the funding received to date will go toward unsheltered homeless and stated she believes that five tiny homes is not aggressive enough to address the unsheltered homeless population. She suggested the City look into other communities'efforts and encouraged the public to attend the City Council Town Hall meeting on Monday, August 12,2019 at 6 p.m. regarding homelessness. 6 >Lr^6r^^rtr¿J % B, wú¡¡rt, .. ft ,, - Fr
