Report – Meeting with Legislators
Mayor Trevino informed Council that the meeting they had with our officials from our district went well.  Superintendent Hart, School Board Chairman Paul Golob, Councilwoman Guzman and himself meet Senator Honeyford and Representatives and discussed the needs of the school and of the City.  He said it was a little late for getting request for funds in front of them, as the monies had already been allocated, however they got a jump for next year.  Each official received a packet from the City that listed our priorities and needs, It was suggested by Senator Honeyford that we narrow down our priorities to maybe two and concentrate our lobbying efforts on them.  He said they discussed the possibility of  a community center for Seniors and Youths seemed to be very promising for next year.  Mayor said all in all the meetings were very beneficial and the networking was great.
