No minutes have been published for any meeting listed below. Everything described here comes from agendas, so none of it can be reported as decided. No vote tallies were available.

Dixon council agenda includes $64,735 contract amendment; commission and greenbelt authority meetings canceled

Dixon's City Council has a packed agenda covering closed-session litigation, police personnel, and multiple contract actions — including a $64,735 contract amendment for construction management services. Meanwhile, the Planning Commission and the Vacaville Dixon Greenbelt Authority have both canceled their upcoming regular meetings.

Because minutes have not yet been published for the council meeting, the items below reflect what was on the agenda, not confirmed outcomes. Readers should check the official city records for final votes and decisions.

City Council — Closed Session Items

The council scheduled a closed session to confer with legal counsel on three existing litigation matters:

• The AFSCME Public Employees Union case (PERB No. SF-CE-2418-M)
• The Rodriguez-Brown case
• The Indio water case

A separate closed session was set to discuss a threat to public services or facilities with the police chief. No details about the nature of that threat were included in the agenda materials.

City Council — Proclamations and Swearing-In

The agenda included a proclamation recognizing the retirement of Evan "Sandy" Jones, as well as a proclamation for Parks & Recreation Month. Police personnel were scheduled to be sworn in during the regular meeting.

City Council — Consent Calendar

Several items were placed on the consent calendar, meaning they were slated for a single vote unless a council member pulled one for separate discussion:

• A resolution authorizing a $64,735 amendment to the city's contract with Cartwright Nor Cal for construction management services.
• A resolution designating Aqua-Metric Sales as a sole source vendor for water metering equipment.
• A resolution designating Univar Solutions as a sole source vendor for sodium hypochlorite.

Sole source designations mean the city identified a single supplier as the only practical source for the needed equipment or chemical, rather than going through a competitive bidding process.
