# Pasadena Legislative Policy Committee  Meeting: September 28, 2026

The September 28, 2026 special meeting of Pasadena City Council’s Legislative Policy Committee, hosted by Pasadena Media, addressed proposed council procedures and standards of conduct, the committee’s regular meeting schedule, vice mayor selection practices, and federal and state legislative updates. The committee discussed—but did not adopt—potential changes including setting public comment at two minutes, correcting meeting-time language, and providing training on Robert’s Rules and the Brown Act. Staff will prepare proposed revisions and a framework for vice mayor selection consistent with the City Charter. A motion to hold regular committee meetings on the first Monday of each month passed unanimously; the first was tentatively set for October 5 at 6:00 p.m., with January 4 also planned despite the holiday timing.

The committee also voted to support local Measures PFD and UP and statewide Proposition 1, and to oppose Propositions 39 and 43. The briefing described PFD as a proposed parcel tax to fund fire preparedness and emergency response, firefighter training, and career-training programs; UP would extend an existing Pasadena City College funding measure. Legislative updates covered federal stopgap funding through December 11, proposed census changes that could affect formula funding, and state legislation concerning data-center water planning and wildfire recovery. The AT&T copper and wireline services item was continued to the following week. No contract awards, vendor selections, or other procurement activity were identified.
