Civic issues
Topics getting the most attention in Hesperia public meetings, ranked by how frequently they come up.
Residency Requirements for Council Candidates
The council discussed whether it can require council candidates to actually live in the district they run in. State law caps residency requirements at 30 days, so options are limited to a 30-day ordinance or residency verification paperwork.
Council Member Departure
Eric Schmidt is leaving Hesperia City Council and looking back on his tenure, marking a changing of the guard at City Hall. The practical effect is a vacant council seat and a shift in local representation, though the source doesn’t say how or when it’ll be filled.
