Neighborhood Pride Enhancement Program honoree selection
The city rewards residents who spruce up their homes with $1,000 in gift cards and a yard sign. This quarter the committee picked nomination No. 6 as the winner.
Hesperia Lakes negotiations
Commissioner Burke raised alarms over reports the city might sell the lakes, which would mean giving up water rights the city owns. Losing them could force the city to buy water at higher rates from Mojave Water Agency.
Hesperia Lake Equestrian Center Closure
Equestrian families pleaded with the council to help reopen the closed equestrian center at Hesperia Lake, saying they've been stonewalled at park district meetings. The city owns the property, and residents want the council to intervene.
Closed equestrian arena at Hesperia Lake Park
The Hesperia Wranglers say the equestrian area is the only part of the lake park still barricaded, and they can't get answers from the Park District. They had to move their memorial scholarship rodeo show elsewhere. The council asked for a Park District update on the next agenda.
