COUNCIL MEMBERS Mayor Harnik presented information from the Southern California Association of Government's General Assembly held in Palm Desert in May. One of the big takeaways for her was a presentation on the progress of autonomous vehicles. She presented information from the International Conference of Shopping Centers where she learned about "big data" and parking geo-fencing. She reported that the Environmental Impact report for the CV Link was approved by the Coachella Valley Association of Governments Executive Committee and the CV Link in Cathedral City has already broken ground. A Youth Committee Member inquired as to the Mayor's announcement that she will be running for Riverside County Supervisor and Mayor Harnik acknowledged that she would be running. B. Legislative Review Committee Ms. Glickman and Mayor Harnik presented to the committee Assemblymember Evan Low's proposed bill ACA 10 which proposes to lower the voting age in California from 18 to 17. The bill purports that lowering the voting age will increase voter turnout and that if youths are engaged at an earlier age they will continue to vote as they grow older. After a lengthy discussion, the Committee and alternate members determined that they would not advise the lowering of the voting age by an informal vote of 14 opposed and 2 in favor. C. STAFF 1.
