Locke Community Meeting - 10/28/2024

This community meeting was organized by the fifth district supervisor, Pat Hume, to discuss the governance of Locke and possible solutions to its current problems. The meeting focused on exploring six different governance options for Locke, ultimately narrowing down to two viable options: updating the Locke Management Association bylaws to remove the county’s appointed seat or dissolving the association altogether. Participants in the meeting, including residents, business owners, and board members, provided their insights and opinions, highlighting issues such as the current lack of representation for renters and the need for more clear boundaries between the commercial and residential areas of Locke. The meeting concluded with a general consensus to explore the possibility of bifurcating Locke into two distinct entities, one focused on the residential area and the other on the commercial area.
