RECOMMENDATIONS
Per San Leandro Charter Section 305(h):
1. Vote on the Mayor's Motion to Reconsider; and
2.

BACKGROUND
On December 1, 2025, the City Council considered a resolution to approve and authorize the City Manager, in coordination with the City Attorney, to execute a limited waiver of the attorney-client privilege for the purpose of releasing the June 2024 revenue measure tracking survey results.
It was moved by Councilmember Viveros-Walton, seconded by Councilmember Boldt, to approve and authorize the City Manager, in coordination with the City Attorney, to execute a limited waiver of the attorney-client privilege for the purpose of releasing the June 2024 revenue measure tracking survey results. The motion failed by the following vote:
Ayes (3) - Boldt, Viveros-Walton, González
Noes (1) - Azevedo
Abstain (2) - Aguilar, Simon
Absent (1) - Bowen
City Charter Section 305(h) authorizes the Mayor to suspend implementation of any action taken by the Council by filing with the City Clerk, within three days after such Council action, a notice of suspension thereof. Such suspension shall constitute a motion for reconsideration of the action taken, to be voted upon by the Council at its next regular meeting.
By filing the attached Notice of Suspension, Mayor González has invoked City Charter Section 305(h) to reconsider adoption of the resolution. Therefore, the resolution has been submitted for reconsideration by the City Council.
To reconsider this matter, the City Council must vote on the Mayor's Motion to Reconsider. If the Motion to Reconsider passes, the City Council may then reconsider adoption of a resolution to approve and authorize the City Manager, in coordination with the City Attorney, to execute a limited waiver of the attorney-client privilege for the purpose of releasing the June 2024 revenue measure tracking survey results.
