Rosemead round up

Tomorrow is the Rosemead council meeting, and the most exciting thing about it isn't on the agenda: The City Council Chambers are finally completed.

For anyone who has ever been to a Rosemead meeting before, you know why this is exciting. I'm hoping this means that, for starters, we will actually be able to hear what speakers saying, and won't have to look at the "No Soking" sign anymore.

But in case you are interested, here are the agenda highlights:

1. The City Council is considering hiring a consultant to look at employee positions and define job duties, and to see if the duties are administered correctly compared with pay amount.

2. The City Council will likely hire a consultant to ensure that they don't mess up the elections like they did three years ago by not providing voter registration in multiple languages.

3. The City Council will vote on a $57,000 contract to get the staff reports online and other recrods.

4. The City Council will vote on awarding a contract to the Nazerian Group for construction of the Rosemead Park Trail Enhancement.

5. The city has been asked by Savannah Memorial Park and the San Gabriel High School Football Team. Each want about $15,000 for their organizations.
