Pomona Council outsourcing subcommittee to meet soon

A recently created City Council subcommittee focusing on outsourcing will meet soon.

The council voted this week to create the subcommittee of council members Tim Saunders, Cristina Carrizosa and Paula Lantz.

Councilman Freddie Rodriguez will serve as an alternate.

The committee will focus on three service areas - parks maintenance, street sweeping and building and safety, said Mark Gluba, assistant to the city manager.

Plans call for the subcommittee to meet before the Aug. 3 council meeting, Gluba said.
