2 issues in public safety with high priority
Fire-code violations at apartment and condo complexes
Multiple large rental and condo properties — including The Essex, The Edge, Tiffany Oaks, Las Palmas Apartments, and West Town Center North — face long lists of fire-code violations like missing sprinkler and alarm inspections, blocked exits, and electrical hazards. These cases matter because they affect resident safety in buildings people live in every day.

Residents want the ALPR cameras permanently removed, not just suspended, and questioned why the promised public briefing wasn't on the agenda. The City Manager confirmed the cameras are down and database access disconnected, though poles remain.
