Pacific Grove’s City Council is scheduled to meet at 6 p.m. Wednesday, September 16, at City Hall. The official agenda packet lists proposed updates to the city credit-card and travel-expense policies, receipt of check-register and financial-status reports, quarterly reports from city boards and commissions, and a public hearing on a budget amendment for CalHOME reuse funds supporting residential rehabilitation and first-time homebuyer assistance. These are agenda proposals, not adopted actions; outcomes require council votes. The city also lists a special closed session at 5 p.m. and provides meeting and public-comment information on its council page. The source states the packet was published September 14 but provides no exact posting time.
