The City Council was the main legislative body of the City of Los Santos from January 20, 2024. It was also referred to as the Council of Eight. After Alan Crane retired as Chief Justice on July 2, 2024, the City Council was legislatively dissolved on July 10, 2024.

To the esteemed citizens of our beloved State of San Andreas: There is no shying away from the crises that befell our previous government and society. The handling of the Sanguine Conflict, much like the proverbial straw on the camel’s back, continued the cascading erosion of trust in our Government that ultimately lead to a full collapse. The tragedies that have befallen our state in our recent past are devastating realities, ones that we must remember and carry with us as we make our way forward, should we intend on learning from our predecessors to create a better world for ourselves. One of the greatest tragedies is that we, as a society, lost faith in the very social contract at the core of our ideals to begin with. Our great State will now employ a robust, representative democratic system of Government. This system has been sculpted to ensure that more voices, more ideas, and more solutions are brought to the table. The heart of this new democracy lies in our City Council, a panel made up of 8 representatives varied in expertise: The sitting Mayor, the Chief of Staff, the Deputy Mayor, the Chief Justice, the Head of the BAR Association, the Healthcare Liaison, the Law Enforcement Liaison, and the Treasurer. Each role has their own function, and this system will ensure that one voice may not drown out the many.

Memorandum Establishing the City Council on December 18, 2023


Council Structure and Responsibilities[]

During the repopulation of Los Santos, the federal government felt that the previous iteration of government harbored much distrust and concern from the citizens. As such, they elected to form a new democratic system of government, featuring both elected and appointed officials. Notably, the appointed Treasurer's Seat has replaced the Mayor of Los Santos's unchecked authority to transfer funds directly from the State Account (Alan Crane believed that three Mayors of Los Santos had spent too much money from it).

The City Council is comprised of eight representatives with varied expertise. Each role has its own main function, but all come together regularly to discuss legislation, new ideas, and challenges they have faced.

  • The Mayor's Seat is filled by the quarterly Mayoral Election, after winning the majority vote. The Mayor is responsible for managing taxes, government payrolls, the oversight of businesses, and other sundry managerial duties.
  • The Chief of Staff's Seat is appointed directly by the Mayor. This position focuses on carrying out the Mayor's goals on a day-to-day basis, promoting their principles and ideals.
  • The Deputy Mayor's Seat is filled by the runner-up in the Mayoral Election. This position ensures fair representation for the constituents whose candidate was not elected.
  • The Chief Justice's Seat is appointed directly by the Federal Government, and oversees the entire Department of Justice.
  • The Head of the Bar Association's Seat is an elected position among the members of the DOJ, including judges and attorneys. In addition to their role on the City Council, this position also oversees the Civilian Oversight Board.
  • The Treasurer's Seat is applied for, with interviews held by the Chief Justice and an exploratory committee, and is based on competency and merit. This position is responsible for fiscal policy and budget oversight.
  • The Healthcare Liaison's Seat is elected by members of healthcare-related government fields, such as the Emergency Medical Services, the Los Santos Medical Group, and the Psychology Department. Their main responsibilities are to provide representation and act as a voice for the medical personnel to the board.

Expectations of the City Council and its Members[]

2024-01-20 City Council - First Meeting

First City Council meeting on January 20, 2024

City Council meeting May 2 2024

First meeting of the April-July 2024 Council on May 2, 2024

All elected and appointed members of the Los Santos City Council must swear an Oath of Office upon formally adopting their position, affirming that they have a clean criminal record bearing no felonies of any kind, no formal allegiance to any other government(s), agencies, and/or special interest groups that would prevent them from acting in the best interest of the City of Los Santos, and that they have not been formerly impeached or removed from a similar position of governmental trust.

Failure to adhere to the aforementioned expectations and requirements risks the revocation of their position and prevention of holding a seat on the City Council indefinitely. Members can also be dismissed if they violate one or more of the Articles of Impeachment listed within the Los Santos Constitution.

Chief Justice Alan Crane per unanimous agreement from the Council of Eight amended the expectations as follows:

  • As of February 7th, 2024, all City Council members must disclose any formal business investments, relationships, or ghost-writers of legislation prior to presentation to the Council of Eight for a vote.
  • As of March 9th, 2024, any City Council member who is successfully impeached may not run for office again for a period of 9 months. (Starting from the commencement of the replacement member).

Council Voting[]

For council voting, each member of the City Council has one vote, with the Mayor's vote acting as two in the event of a tie. Any majority vote is deemed successful, but the federal government has veto power if there are fewer than a three-fourths vote for a certain outcome. In this way, the City Council has a strong level of self-determination, but the Federal Government may step in if there is not a strong majority.

Minutes for January 27, 2024
January 27 Council meeting

First legislative meeting on January 27, 2024

Resulting announcements of January 27 meeting

Resulting State Announcements of the January 27 meeting

  1. With next week’s ideas set for last, the first item of discussion this week is increasing speed limits. Deputy Mayor Simone, Mayor Thoroughbred, Chief Justice Crane, and Head of Bar Malton’s speed limits are proposed to be 55 mph (89 km/h) in the city, 75 mph (119 km/h) on county roads, and 90 mph (196 km/h) on highways. All speeding fines are doubled. The council votes unanimously in favor, and the law is passed.
  2. Chief of Staff Sweeney wants panic buttons to alert the LSPD, for Snr. Buns and government buildings such as City Hall, as there had been five years prior. However she is concerned about misuse of 911. The Council votes unanimously in favor, but the law has to be run by the construction workers for feasibility.
  3. Law Enforcement Liaison Nekoda is working on draft legislation for limits on Denver boot use. Crane is concerned about allowing more people to use the boot. Nekoda brings up the issues with unauthorized individuals booting cars. The Council agrees this is more of an individual person issue than something legislation can fix.
  4. The topic gradually transitions to police siren and car use. Crane educates the rest of the Council on how the state funds work. In a new reform that the federal government just passed, paychecks that require online logins to access (government jobs, welfare benefits, etc.) are now paid out of the state account. They no longer come from the federal government. Bulk purchases are risky as the Thoroughbred administration starts hiring more government workers, especially police officers and lawyers.
  5. Modifications to cop cars. There is some discussion of squad car liveries. Mayor Thoroughbred suggests adding turbochargers to every squad car. He affirms that cops should pay for their own car modifications since they are some of the highest paid government workers. Crane asks everyone on the Council to tell Police Captain Leonardo Slacks about it.
  6. Discussion of the gun code and tightening gun control. Nekoda proposes to make an amendment to the “brandishing a non-firearm” charge. He wants to add "without a legal reason" to help with some loopholes. The vote on the amendment fails, with 1 yea and 7 neas.
  7. Nekoda and Simone repropose the mask mandate, a law that allows the LSPD to legally stop and demand identification of anyone with a mask due to historical gang-related patterns of wearing them. The difference from the previous mandate is that officers no longer have the right to frisk the person being identified. Crane raises a concern that nothing has happened to constitute it yet. Treasurer Hawthorne needles him for it. The Council decides to wait on voting on it until later into the term.
  8. Mayor Thoroughbred proposes publicly releasing the Council minutes. Treasurer Hawthorne tacks on discussion of state evidence. The Council votes unanimously in favor of publicizing their actions. They also talk about holding press conferences after every council meeting. They are also likely going to add all this to the upcoming DOJ app.
  9. 18-wheelers are being legalized. Crane favors it for logistics improvement reasons. Nekoda notes it would be easy to find them in Paleto. Crane says the legislation will include commercial driver's licenses for the 18-wheelers. There will also be laws and regulations around the weight of trucks and their merchandise. Crane alerts the Council that the LSPD needs to be allowed to check truck loads on highways (citing the issue of Grime drivers carrying dangerous loads at high speeds). The legislation will be ready in the next few weeks.
  10. Healthcare Liaison Canter suggests two ideas: New supplements to HIPAA, and codifications of emergency room procedure changes. The suggestion is tabled.
  11. Head of Bar Malton brings up subpoena reform, and the concern of police being able to read notebooks when searching somebody's possessions, and whether they should need a warrant to read it. Crane raises a few legal points about it, but expresses his belief it is an issue that should be handled in court should anybody ever sue the police over it. Head of Bar Malton then begins the discussion on the Civilian Oversight Board for the LSPD. They discuss the criteria to be able to be voted into it, and decide on barring felons, people with violent misdemeanors, and people already serving government positions of any kind (including clerks and lawyers), from eligibility. Treasurer Hawthorne feels a direct popular vote is not appropriate due to the nature of the position. Crane suggests a direct popular vote for eight candidates (likely using single-transferable vote), with interviews to be conducted to pick the final four for the board. As an aside, Mayor Thoroughbred informs everyone he’s met two police officers who are illiterate or can’t write. The Head of Bar will get the tiebreaker vote. The vote to form the Board (without additional details) is unanimously in favor.
  12. Crane returns to the topic of driving. Street racing seems to be partially decriminalized. Mayor Thoroughbred puts forward the idea of raising fines for traffic violations across the board. Mayor Thoroughbred had noticed that the fines for evading and reckless evading were now smaller than those for first-degree speeding. Mayor Thoroughbred proposes increasing the reckless evading charge fine to $1,000 so it is placed back above first-degree speeding (and to look over all speeding-related charges). Crane states that all fines had been lowered in the government restructure and the adjustment of fines causes them to be out of proportion. To keep the fines in step with the speeding changes, the Council unanimously decides to raise the fines for the other speeding- and evading-related charges. No vote is needed.
  13. Simone brings up ‘stand your ground’ laws. He goes back and forth with Crane over the details. There is a question about drivers standing their ground for Grime and Gruppe 6 vans, but the Council decides not to apply them because the bags and vans are technically state property, not personal property. Nothing is changed about the legislation.
  14. Healthcare Liaison Canter brings up the doctor pay issue, recalling the doctors’ walkout a few days before. Public opinion wants them to make as much as Gruppe 6. Mayor Thoroughbred says he is more interested in helping Gruppe 6, and insults the doctors. Crane joins him, citing his experience with wages as a judge and a legal advisor at Dean World. Treasurer Hawthorne chimes in with mechanic work. Mayor Thoroughbred and Canter discuss the firing of Frog from the medical field. The doctors say they need more protection from criminals. Mayor Thoroughbred emphasizes doctors have it easier than a lot of other jobs where robbery is common. He encourages her to act strongly when it comes to holding doctors accountable. Canter speaks on some concerns she had with lawyers starting to toe the line on suing doctors due to perceived quality of treatment. Crane assures her these lawyers will be unable to push medical malpractice in court. Any further issues will likely just be a discussion between Canter and Head of Bar Malton.
  15. Mayor Thoroughbred begins introducing his bills. Brady rule reform is on the agenda. The Council feels there is no threat of the police destroying evidence. Crane says they should make their own laws around it if necessary. Crane is vehemently opposed to the reform but agrees with the rest of the Council that the police should not destroy evidence. The city’s laws already state that officers who commit evidence tampering should be fired and criminally charged with the evidence tampering charge that is in place. This would include withholding evidence. No vote is made, and the Council decides against it. Brady rule reform is tabled so the LSPD can work with the Council to come up with its own version. While Mayor Thoroughbred can get his attention, Nekoda mentions some Snr. Buns drama with managers. Crane dissuades him from elaborating, saying it isn't the Council’s issue.
  16. Mayor Thoroughbred proposes a misdemeanor fine for littering of animal carcasses in public. All the Council notes the odd placement of deer heads in public places. Nekoda also notes there is no penalty or charge for unlicensed hunting. Crane says it just falls under animal cruelty. Canter comes up with the title: Regulated Exclusion of Exotic Debris; the fine is set at $900 and 12 months’ probation; the Council agrees to work on the motion. The Council votes unanimously in favor.
  17. Crane quickly resolves Head of Bar Malton’s DNA testing reform idea.
  18. Mayor Thoroughbred brings up duels, pro wrestling and MMA, if a judge approves of it beforehand. He wants the police to supervise these matches. (While he leaves to give testimony in a trial, Crane says he isn’t against the combat sports idea. Treasurer Hawthorne asks if everyone wants food; everyone agrees and requests water. Crane also defines some of the country roads in creating the new speed limits. Chief of Staff Sweeney laughingly, jovially discusses some of the public reactions to the new speed limits. Clerk Alex Mushkin chimes in regarding truck modifications.) Mayor Thoroughbred returns, and defines the fighting as consensual fighting; the law absolves liability and each match is overseen by an officer. The Council raises the question of LSPD manpower to handle it. They believe it should be limited to specific settings. Crane suggests judges oversee them in the courtroom. Everyone buys into that idea, and the Council votes unanimously in favor.
  19. One-child policy. Mayor Thoroughbred goes over the basics (a limit of one adopted child per person, a $25,000 fee to adopt, a $25,000 fee to void an adoption, a $50,000 fine for adoption fraud, no liability or inheritance, and explicit clauses stating this does not apply to relation by marriage or birth); a Council member suggests free compensation, but Mayor Thoroughbred dismisses it; Chief of Staff Sweeney discusses adult adoptions and the age gap. Someone explains that in the context of Los Santos, an adoption is not just parent-child, but can also be brotherly-sisterly. The Council discusses name changes; Crane is skeptical of the rest of the Council’s stance because it may cause issues with the federal government; adoption fraud is discussed further.
  20. Chief of Staff Sweeney proposes a central government genealogy database; Crane expresses concerns it may violate civil liberties; Mayor Thoroughbred says it is unrelated to the adoption matter; someone suggests adoption stings against adoption fraud. Canter expresses mild skepticism of the one-child limit. The Council decides on a compounding fee where the second adoption is $50,000, the third is $100,000, and so on. Sweeney sinks the legislation; Crane suggests it be rewritten, to which Mayor Thoroughbred and Sweeney agree, and the bill is tabled.
  21. Mayor Thoroughbred proposes the SIN Act. An anti-inbreeding act, it states that family members are defined as first cousins or less in relation. There is a question about the legality of requesting adoption papers and where the line is drawn for inbreeding. It requires the definition of adoption. This will be drafted and officially proposed at the next meeting. Crane suggests refining the ban on inbreeding and jokes about the amount of paperwork required for a prospective adoptive parent; Mayor Thoroughbred promotes family crests; he also proposes that instant arrest follow if public displays of affection between siblings are found in public; a $1,500 fine is also considered. The Council strips out the exemption for Siz Fulker’s family, and votes unanimously in favor.
  22. Mayor Thoroughbred proposes the REIT Modernization Act (an act to enable affordable housing through real estate investment; the effect would be to allow rent-to-own houses without owners being hit too hard by property taxes earlier in the future, since houses are so difficult to buy; financial instruments such as rent are exempt from tax in this legislation). Immediately Hawthorne and Canter object to the idea and suggest a limit to the number of properties owned, and a time limit before the property can be purchased after renting. It turns out Canter and Hawthorne are vaguely aware of Mr. Kebun buying up lots of property; Crane knows what a REIT is. Crane raises the question of figures on the Council being influenced by their investments and requiring them to present their investment portfolio when they enter office. Crane and Mayor Thoroughbred both note they’re big investors in RON Oil; Mayor Thoroughbred metaphorically throws his fiancée Siobhan Fitzpatrick under the bus on the conflict of interest issue. The Council wants to draft something relating to disclosures to handle the issue with Mr. Kebun owning and renting out a large amount of houses. Crane is worried about the tedium of defining rental, landlord and tenant laws. The Council did not bring the REIT Modernization Act to a vote.
  23. Matters of impeachment are briefly discussed.
  24. Mayoral Amnesty Act, an act establishing the Mayor's ability to issue pardons. A guilty verdict must be rendered. It is not a full pardon, as the convicted person will still have to serve a quarter of the time. Mayor Thoroughbred, Head of Bar Malton, Chief of Staff Sweeney and Healthcare Liaison Canter take up most of the discussion, with Mayor Thoroughbred saying he should be able to pardon whoever voted him in, and noting pardons are mostly an on-the-spot improvisation; the Council suggests most capital punishments should not be able to be wiped from a person's record. Crane is not in favor of the Mayor having blanket authority over amnesty and clemency. An issue raised is that a mayor might try to hand out clemency, or grant it to themselves. Crane also feels it might conflict with the expungement program. Crane asks why Mayor Thoroughbred would want to issue pardons compared to expungement reasons, and taunts him; Healthcare Liaison Canter asks if limits on pardon eligibility can be written; Mayor Thoroughbred yells at Crane about double jeopardy and its obsolescence; half the Council raises the question: if the Mayor is caught pardoning his friends, can he be voted out? Canter asks if the pardon power could be held by the Council instead; Mayor Thoroughbred says that a pardon needs to be done with haste; other members point out abusing the power is hard to prove. The question will be revisited at the next meeting. Mayor Thoroughbred, Chief of Staff Sweeney, and Deputy Mayor Simone vote in favor, versus 5 nays; the Council does not pass the bill. However, the Council is open to a revised version with more restrictions.
  25. Mayor Thoroughbred proposes the Marriage Act (modeled on the federal Defense of Marriage Act), which allows the state to recognize marriages and spousal privilege (whereby a spouse cannot be compelled to testify against their spouse in court). Same-sex marriage is allowed. The Council also proposes that spousal privilege would not take effect until 21 days after they are married. Spousal privilege is nullified at divorce. Divorces will not establish asset splitting, and divorce court cases will not occur. The marriage license fee is set at $25,000, as is a new divorce fee; the minimum legal age set at 18. Crane says divorce guidelines will need to be met. Previous marriages will need to be refiled through court. Judges have discretion about marriages in the case of pending trials. Polygamy is outlawed. All aspects of marriage, and other caveats not established in the legislation, are otherwise left up to judicial discretion. The Council votes unanimously in favor.
  26. Mayor Thoroughbred does not mention his elderly culling bill, and concludes the meeting. Everything tabled will be revised for the next meeting, Saturday, February 3, at the same time.

2024-02-03 City Council - Second Legislative Meeting

Second legislative meeting

City Council outcomes February 3

Outcomes of the second legislative meeting

  1. Mayor Thoroughbred begins the meeting by explaining how he wants the agenda to work, requesting each council member write their own agendas in a centralized mobile data terminal document. He chooses to put forth his proposals last.
  2. Head of Bar Malton goes first and suggests a new commercial parking violation law. The Council votes unanimously in favor to begin editing it.
  3. Malton suggests a law where lawyer signatures are required on all contracts. The Council votes unanimously in favor to begin editing it.
  4. Malton suggests new ethical disclosure laws for counselors. The Council votes unanimously in favor to begin editing them.
  5. Deputy Mayor Simone introduces the EGO Act, aka a “three-strikes law”, which cracks down harder on targeted violence after three separate acts. This is partially a response to the targeted harassment towards Mosley’s and its employees. The Council votes unanimously in favor to begin editing it.
  6. Chief of Staff Sweeney suggests having post-meeting press conferences again. Most of the Council raises questions regarding how it would work. Sweeney wants the public there instead of just the press. The Council votes unanimously in favor to begin editing the bill.
  7. Law Enforcement Liaison Nekoda suggests changes to specific charges in the mobile data terminal to crack down on police gun thefts and assaults on police. The Council votes unanimously in favor to begin editing them.
  8. Mayor Thoroughbred asks if government employees assisting council members can have access to reports in the MDT, disclosing his wife Siobhan’s desire to access them. Crane and the other Council members have no issue with it. Crane provides clerks Kermy Fulker and Alex Mushkin with access since they are in the room.
  9. Mayor Thoroughbred presents the final draft of his bill of rights (created by him, his wife and Sweeney). The council agrees with almost all of his points. They edit the right to jaywalk, only to decriminalize it and not protect the risk of injury. Most of the suggested edits relate to specific wordings. The right to partake in deadly bloodsports is tabled for further discussion separate from the bill of rights. The right to form a militia is amended to bar forcible conscription of a state employee. The Council votes unanimously in favor to pass the finished law.
  10. Mayor Thoroughbred proposes his edited Pardon Law, which now makes pardons sweeping across all crimes in a record, but is subject to a Council vote instead of a mayoral final decision. Crane argues that they should change some of the language to express the idea that a person set to be given a pardon did the crime, but their value to society is greater than the crime, instead of an appeal which erases the crime from the historical record and blames the DOJ for a mistake. Crane explains that pardons and appeals can now act for different purposes. The Council votes unanimously in favor to pass the amended law.
  11. Mayor Thoroughbred proposes his edited Expungement Law. The Council reworks the fines. The Council votes unanimously in favor to pass the law.
  12. Mayor Thoroughbred proposes his edited one-child policy, which now defines adoptions in Los Santos and puts clear parameters on where adoption begins and ends. The majority of the Council agrees with the policy, with some slight pushback from Treasurer Hawthorne who is quite attached to her adopted family. The Council votes with 7 yeas, and 1 nay to pass the law as proposed.
  13. Mayor Thoroughbred ends the meeting.

City Council meeting February 10

Third legislative meeting, February 10, 2024

City Council announcements February 11 2024

Results of the third legislative meeting

  1. Mayor Thoroughbred starts the meeting by informing everyone that Chief of Staff Sweeney will not be present due to illness. His wife Siobhan is in the room as his aide.
  2. He asks for proposals. All members show their hands except Treasurer Hawthorne. There is some back-and-forth between Healthcare Liaison Canter, Law Enforcement Liaison Nekoda, Deputy Mayor Simone and Head of Bar Malton. He asks all present who gave John Bailey a weapons license; Chief Justice Crane surmises that he gave it to himself, and Mayor Thoroughbred asks Crane to investigate it further.
  3. Mayor Thoroughbred reveals Hawthorne’s proposed changes to the one-child policy and Marriage Act. He will allow a cut in the adoption fee from $30,000 to $25,000 and a second adoption contingent upon a $75,000 fee, as well as changes to the relationship with the Marriage Act. He polls the other members. Hawthorne, Malton and Canter express their support, Malton citing social media responses. Crane interrupts to announce that Mr. Kebun had texted him angrily about the agenda. The meeting resumes swiftly, and Crane delivers some anecdotes involving the city’s pay schedules, on the themes of appeasement and money envy, to explain his support. Mayor Thoroughbred also adds a registry of adoptions to the law. Malton adds his own explanation, as does Canter. The amendment passes, as the Council votes unanimously in favor.
  4. Thoroughbred briefly steps out to discuss whether he should get Gomer Colton a lawyer on a contract revolving around Mr. Kebun’s real estate investments. He returns as the Council, mostly Malton and Canter, continues to discuss the pay schedules in the city. Due to ambient noise from the police, they move from the meeting room to Chief of Staff Sweeney’s office.
  5. Canter and Thoroughbred complain about Gruppe 6 pay being too high. Crane points out that even though Gruppe 6 workers are entitled to work as long as they want, they should have some measure of pay docking. Canter disdainfully compares their pay to doctor pay and Malton supports her perspective, but Crane has objections based on the morality of the idea. Malton presses his case, and Crane reminds everyone with a slippery slope argument against the general pay increases. Malton, Crane and Canter have more back-and-forth over the pay, Malton citing his time in the police. Crane briefly mentions the matter of judges’ productivity. He reviews the base pay schedule and suggests some edits: $800 an hour for Council members and police, $725 an hour for doctors, and $700 an hour for lawyers. The Council unanimously agrees in theory.
  6. There is some discussion of the feasibility of a progressive wealth tax and changes to property taxes. The Council brings up Mr. Kebun’s investments. Crane says the wealth tax idea will be difficult to implement. He also mentions eminent domain is a possibility, but he is not in favor of it. Mayor Thoroughbred raises a proposal to cap the number of residential properties that can be owned, which Hawthorne agrees with. Mayor Thoroughbred says he is now opposed to his idea, implicitly lobbying on Mr. Kebun’s behalf. Canter switches her stance to Thoroughbred’s. Crane also mentions housing scarcity, before all the Council votes unanimously against a cap.
  7. Thoroughbred and Crane ponder whether felons are allowed to work at Gruppe 6. They agree that the lax policies allowing them to work there are fine in principle. Simone chimes in. Crane says the policy is problematic in practice so all felons should be banned, though he will discuss the matter with the Gruppe 6 leadership in the future.
  8. Crane mentions whether at-will employment (related to the concept of the gig economy) should persist, given recent firings at the police department. Citing Thoroughbred’s pro-capitalist stance, he states that labor laws restricting it should not exist at the moment given the fledgling state of the economy. Malton says no one should be fired for attempting to organize a union, without justification. The Council agrees, and the discussion is tabled while Crane works on the labor legislation.
  9. Crane discusses the prison’s lack of organizational structure. Captain Leonardo Slacks wants to use state funds to restart the Department of Corrections. People going to jail willingly jump from the towers. The Council agrees that three guards, a warden and a deputy warden should be the minimum staffing level. Non-lethal weapons, not guns, should be used. Local guards should be placed in the towers. Mayor Thoroughbred says police should take more care of the prison’s security matters in the interim, and Slacks should fix his hiring problems. Malton resolves to create a summary of the DOC’s operational plan before the next meeting. Mayor Thoroughbred suggests a new charge be levied against people who assist in jailbreaks. Law Enforcement Liaison Nekoda raises the concern that police staffing levels are too low, to which Mayor Thoroughbred suggests that the police should intensify their training. He outlines his vision of there being no DOC, only local guards. Canter speaks on the question of DOC transports. Crane says a brief colorful hypothetical, and Malton also speaks on the matter. The discussion is tabled. Mayor Thoroughbred then calls for a five-minute break, with Crane going over his early labor law ideas, and Thoroughbred warning he may have to contend with some physics problems.
  10. The meeting resumes, with Malton speaking on the matter of private vehicle misdemeanors and bringing up public reactions to last week’s agenda. Simone has some hearing issues. Mayor Thoroughbred resolves to move the meeting to his SUV, but he is forced to teleport around the island, with some of the various attendees also being transported around the island, Nekoda, Canter and Malton discussing the pay rises beforehand. Mayor Thoroughbred resolves to end the meeting and schedule the fourth one for sometime midweek. This does not happen.

Fourth legislative meeting

City Council announcements February 18, 2024

Outcomes of the fourth legislative meeting

  1. Mayor Thoroughbred compliments Deputy Mayor Simone on his legislation, particularly the business law reforms. Chief of Staff Sweeney brings up the lack of communications with him versus her light work with Simone, and questions the Mayor on the lack of progress on his chamber of commerce proposal, to which the Mayor responds that it will be a long-term effort. Mayor Thoroughbred silences Chief Justice Crane, then argues loudly with Sweeney on speaking with Darcy Lane to refine the business reform proposal, noting that many of her ideas have already been taken care of by him.
  2. Crane has to take a break. Deputy Mayor Simone speaks on Mayor Thoroughbred’s changes to some bills and the MDT. Treasurer Hawthorne and Healthcare Liaison Canter also speak.
  3. Deputy Mayor Simone introduces his dress code legislation, the DRIP Act. He takes feedback from Head of Bar Malton and Canter, who are in agreement. Simone announces he is welcome to further changes.
  4. The topic turns to Gruppe 6 uniforms, which Mayor Thoroughbred jokes about. Crane brings up the issue of gun licenses at Gruppe 6. He knows Alexander River has been trying to force the issue with his own boasts of knowing the Council and having a gun, and cites it in his expression of concern at the DRIP Act: he thinks it would be better for organizations to create their own standards. Simone explains some of his reasoning.
  5. Crane brings up a hypothetical, about shooting would-be carjackers and whether it would be in self-defense. Mayor Thoroughbred speaks on Jessi Adler’s second kidnapping attempt the previous night. He says he is in favor of issuing more weapons licenses. Simone offers feedback.
  6. The topic now shifts to Nekoda’s changes to the criminal laws, particularly illegal firearms possession. Simone and Crane offer minor feedback; Crane polls the Council, who agree on a limited rollout of the weapons licenses. Crane, incorporating feedback from Thoroughbred and Hawthorne, reveals he will make the changes more subtle, particularly where firearms licenses and theft of firearms are concerned. Nekoda continues summarizing some more of the changes to the charges. Crane warns him to think of the feasibility and consequences of some of the changes brought up. Treasurer Hawthorne also asks Nekoda and Crane on the moonshine brewing charges. Canter and Malton note the quality of moonshine is terrible at the moment.
  7. There is some more back-and-forth over moonshine charges. Thoroughbred says he is in good graces with Siz Fulker on the changes; he succeeds in getting the Council to agree to them. Malton says he is in favor of decriminalization of moonshine. Crane then says even if there is heavy regulation of production, decriminalization will encourage criminal groups to worsen their behavior. He also rules out establishing a city-level version of the EPA. Malton is now annoyed, citing tensions between the DOJ and LSPD. Pressed for time, Mayor Thoroughbred forces a vote on the changes. Starting with the robbery security charge, he votes in favor, as does Nekoda. Malton votes against it. Crane holds the voting up with an objection. Nekoda and Canter agree with Crane. The voting is paused and the discussion tabled. Regarding the blanket charge bill, the Council votes unanimously in favor.
  8. Mayor Thoroughbred resumes Council discussion of Simone’s DRIP Act on dress codes. Malton is not in favor. Crane facetiously mentions Jerome Henry Jackson as a role model for judging fashion. The vote is 7 yeas, 1 nay, and the bill passes into law.
  9. Simone introduces the Vehicle Damageability and Maintenance Mandate, concerning missing doors and hoods. Canter helps him clarify some content. There is some back-and-forth between Simone, Malton and Canter. Simone also asks for changes regarding police stops, and changes some fine amounts. The Council votes unanimously in favor, and the VDM Mandate passes into law.
  10. The Council brings up expansions to stolen goods charges. They vote unanimously in favor of Crane drafting bills to do them.
  11. After Thoroughbred reviews some minor criminal law matters, Malton introduces his own bill on lawyer employee reclassifications. For the purpose of the penal code, lawyers would be classified as government employees. The Council votes unanimously in favor, and the un-amended bill passes into law.
  12. Simone introduces his bill for issuing passes to allow running in City Hall. The Council votes unanimously in favor.
  13. Simone introduces his business license legislation. Most of the Council is in agreement, though Sweeney has two questions, which Simone swiftly resolves. While the Council is in agreement, the bill is tabled as they consider other matters.
  14. Simone introduces his bill on civil asset forfeiture, specifically involving vehicles. The bill ties fines to vehicle prices. It resolves the issue of criminals’ last-minute car sales before first strikes by law enforcement.  Nekoda wants more vehicle documentation. Crane speaks on police seizures. Malton and Simone explain cars can be auctioned by the state, but only civilians without felony charges can participate. The bill is tabled.
  15. Canter introduces her motorcycle helmet mandate, influenced by Dr. Charlie Jannetty and William Glory. Malton says he doesn’t care, and people can do whatever they want with their bodies. Crane also raises rights concerns. The bill is tabled.
  16. Canter introduces the MENS REA Act, her religion bill drafted with Siobhan’s input; it protects confessions and provides a form of government recognition of religious nonprofits. Malton objects, alongside Treasurer Hawthorne. The bill, Crane points out, is ripe for abuse, and Crane cites the Supreme Court doctrine of imminent lawless action. He also accuses the bill of being too biased towards one religion (Roman Catholicism). Crane announces he is apathetic toward the bill, and matters of religious nonprofits in general. Mayor Thoroughbred speaks on the separation of church and state; he notes it does not necessarily apply to the island. Crane asks about bank accounts being deeded to nonprofits, which Thoroughbred believes should be outlawed. The Mayor notes that not every religion will be granted recognition privileges. He also mentions Sunny Brooks’ activism on the issue. Canter addresses more concerns, primarily from Malton. Mayor Thoroughbred mentions he is working on stronger legislation to allow government recognition of religious nonprofits and penalize impersonating a clergyman, influenced by Sunny Brooks. Sweeney says that public opinion on the MENS REA Act must be heard and monitored. The roll call is held on the MENS REA Act. Malton votes nay, Nekoda abstains, Canter votes yea, Thoroughbred votes yea, Crane abstains. The Council votes 5-1-2. Mayor Thoroughbred calls for a break.
  17. Mayor Thoroughbred introduces the STUPID Act, standardizing time in Los Santos, specifically for sentencing purposes: minutes are to be called minutes. He seeks Nekoda’s input. Nekoda is neutral. Thoroughbred points out time dilation is not real across such a small island, and pushes back on Canter’s belief that reality is too complex. Kermy Fulker audibly starts playing video games at this time. The roll call is held. Thoroughbred votes yea, as do Simone and Sweeney. Nekoda abstains, as do Malton, Crane, and Hawthorne. Canter votes nay. The vote is 31-4. The bill passes into law.
  18. Sweeney mentions her idea of a Parks and Recreation Department. It gets swept up in more reaction to the time, as Thoroughbred dismisses the day/night cycle. He then forces the discussion back onto Sweeney’s draft, but she ends it, saying she needs to do more work on it.
  19. Mayor Thoroughbred introduces amendments to increase expungement fees, to $150,000. A “mulligan” provision for a minor infraction, officially a “one-time forgiveness”, would occasion a fee of $100,000. Crane suggests some changes, which Malton, Thoroughbred and Canter appreciate. The Council votes unanimously in favor, and the amendments pass.
  20. Mayor Thoroughbred notes the spate of criminal activity in the town of Paleto. Illicit marijuana sales are rising, according to Cletus Cornwood, who lobbied him to create a County Sheriff position complete with elections. According to Nekoda, the police department is suffering from retention issues, with first-time officers receiving inadequate training. The Mayor suggests he talk to Treasurer Hawthorne about improving the police budget. New motor pool and K-9 units are also being floated.
  21. The mask mandate is revisited. The Council unanimously agrees to strengthen the law.
  22. The Council also unanimously agrees to place a 20-point maximum on driver’s licenses.
  23. Crane reveals he has a “special treat” in the form of tax changes.
  24. Crane also facetiously discusses wanting to confine Bobby Charles, the Dan Clan, and Carmine Costello to an island to have them fight for a corrections officer or police position, since they keep annoying the recruiters about one. Simone wants the Pit back. The Littleman family are also named as candidates. The Council unanimously agrees and Crane pledges to draft legislation.
  25. The Council promises to work on penalties for misuse of a rental vehicle.
  26. With Juno promising to work more on the parks and recreation legislation, Mayor Thoroughbred discusses some e-logistics and ends the meeting.

Results of the meeting, February 26, 2024

Cletus Cornwood has been invited by new Chief of Staff Siobhan Thoroughbred and her husband the Mayor to take notes and discuss his disciplinary situation. Captains Leonardo Slacks and Wyatt Turner are present. Mayor Thoroughbred and Treasurer Hawthorne are 18 and 22 minutes late, respectively. Moonshine is being served for the first time.

  1. The Council realizes that no one but Deputy Mayor Simone, Chief Justice Crane, and the Thoroughbreds read the latest updates to a police continuity reform bill the Mayor and Crane authored. After two hours of nonstop discussion, in which Crane explains all parts of the bill (containing requirements that the LSPD report to the Mayor, allowing him to diplomatically mediate between various factions, and creating the position of Police Commissioner, which is left unfilled). Mayor Thoroughbred, Chief of Staff Siobhan Thoroughbred, Head of Bar Malton, Chief Justice Crane, and Deputy Mayor Simone vote yea, and the bill passes with 5 yeas, 3 nays.
  2. Captains Slacks and Turner are invited to leave as discussion on the Police Continuity Plan concludes, with Chief Justice Crane continuing to work on the wording.
  3. Healthcare Liaison Canter introduces her HIPAA-inspired Patient Information Privacy Protection Act (PIPPA). The Act codifies the circumstances and process under which patient medical records may be released to police officers or lawyers, with the goal of preventing those records ending up on the public docket without patients’ knowledge. Provisions are made for Emergency Contacts to have Limited Health Care Durable Power of Attorney in the event that the patient is unable to participate in the process due to their medical condition.
  4. Discussion of PIPPA is tabled briefly to review Chief Justice Crane's final changes to the Police Continuity Plan, which the Council finds agreeable.
  5. Canter’s PIPPA proposal passes, the Council voting unanimously in favor.
  6. Chief Justice Crane introduces his legislation regarding police inspections of Gruppe 6 trucks as well as limits to gun inventories at Ammu-Nation. He promises that weapons licenses will be introduced in the next week. Head of Bar Malton asks him about checkpoints for weapons inspections of certain trucks; Crane assures him there is much support among the police for the plan. Mayor Thoroughbred asks what to do to punish drivers of overweight trucks; Crane answers he does not know what to do with them; Mayor Thoroughbred asks Nekoda the same, Nekoda gives his idea that it should not be a felony but a fine, which Crane agrees with, and Mayor Thoroughbred concurs. Malton offers his suggestion, and Crane elaborates that the penalty is five driver’s license points. Mayor Thoroughbred notes that many of the people in his neighborhood next to Sandy Shores will have to adjust. Crane notes Tessa Lamb’s contribution of a driving school under the old state; he believes the clerks at City Hall should act as a quasi-Department of Motor Vehicles. Nekoda offers his contribution: a new criminal charge, which Crane and Cornwood flesh out the details of. Crane announces his revision plans and plans for work on the gun license bills, and Mayor Thoroughbred offers his final thoughts. The discussion is tabled.
  7. Mayor Thoroughbred asks Treasurer Hawthorne for legislation. She has none at the moment, but Crane notes she is consulting police officers on vehicle wear-and-tear legislation for a future meeting. Mayor Thoroughbred explains the funding situation for the EMS and police in response.
  8. Mayor Thoroughbred asks Deputy Mayor Simone for legislation. He has none. He asks Siobhan for legislation, and hears she is working on an amendment to the DRIP Act imposing a ban on Crocs for their unsafe qualities; there is feedback from Crane and Canter.
  9. Mayor Thoroughbred goes over some of the suggestions from his latest town hall events. There is discussion of engine repair kits which is saved for later. Crane brings up Vivek Ramasquamy’s threat to secede from Los Santos; the Council laughingly dismisses it.
  10. Mayor Thoroughbred discusses driver’s license reform: his suggestion is that after 20 points licenses get revoked. Clerks should be allowed to reinstate them.
  11. Mayor Thoroughbred brings up tampered firearms. Concerning Crane’s gun control reforms and weapons tampering, Simone goes over ballistics analysis. Canter agrees with his proposed reforms. Crane explains his new plan: civilian firearms should have stamps and serial numbers. A weekly limit on gun purchases is also being considered. Serial gun offenders will have their license revoked by the DOJ.
  12. The Mayor announces he intends to pardon Mr. Kebun.
  13. The Mayor mentions he is working on reforms to misuse of a rental vehicle.
  14. Theft of turbochargers is extensively discussed, particularly between Simone, Nekoda, Malton, Crane and Siobhan.
  15. After some dismissive comments on Bobby Charles joining Vivek’s treason plan, the Mayor calmly justifies his angry outbursts during the meeting, and ends it.

Results

Mr. Kebun has snuck in. Bobby Charles and Carmine Costello are present at the Mayor’s invitation. Cletus Cornwood is also present to guard him and Siobhan. Chief Justice Crane introduces Spanish Justice Minister Arthur Canón and his assistants as observers.

  1. The Mayor finishes writing last-minute legislation designating Bobby Charles and Carmine Costello as wardens of Bolingbroke Penitentiary. He and Crane discuss revisions to the Police Continuity Plan establishing a Chief of Police position, with the Mayor explaining he will save the Commissioner position for later. Law Enforcement Liaison Nekoda asks if the Mayor will oversee firings and police documents; he and Crane confirm it. The revisions pass; the Council votes unanimously in favor.
  2. Mayor Thoroughbred, Costello, Charles and Kebun introduce some prisoners, including Bryan Donkey, to demonstrate that the new system effectively reforms people. He asks the Council for feedback. Costello praises the Mayor; after some approval from Crane, the legislation passes, and the Council votes unanimously in favor.
  3. Head of Bar Malton summarizes his audit of the police (noting the slowness of the captains in their decision-making) and introduces Jenny Hall, his partner in the audit, letting her give her summary (the police are too willing to punish and unwilling to be diplomatic).
  4. Crane notices a cameraman, Xavier Monroe; Mayor Thoroughbred orders Monroe to destroy the tape, and says he wants the meetings to be filmed in the interest of transparency. Crane says he wanted Ursula Leichenberg to report; Mayor Thoroughbred offers a compromise to not film the current meeting, but put filming future meetings up for a vote. Etta objects on unspecified moral grounds. Crane agrees, but offers some criticisms. Mayor Thoroughbred puts the vote forward; the Council votes unanimously in favor of adding a cameraman. The Mayor offers a list of candidates, among them Ursula, Ferst Temple and Moose Knuckles, but the Council is unable to come to a conclusion.
  5. Hall resumes summarizing the audit. Owen Svensen is also introduced as an auditor; he implies the police is overpaid and says Shift 1 has too many experienced cops doing nothing, Shift 2 is too chaotic and Shift 3 is dead. Mayor Thoroughbred brings in as another police auditor Judge William Glory.
  6. Crane announces civilian gun licenses are to be introduced the following Monday, March 4, to require no felonies, and to cost $25,000. He also says he is uninterested in doing work on the business license rules, to the Mayor’s chagrin; he further says that he is concerned the Mayor is over-exerting his powers over the police.
  7. Mayor Thoroughbred lets Judge Glory and Owen Svensen speak on the audit. Svensen delivers his opinions of the captains; he is mixed on Leonardo Slacks and Wyatt Turner and believes Brooke Ruth is too disciplinarian. He compares the police’s inactivity to firefighting and says they are unable to delegate. Judge Glory says Flop Dugong has been too lazy. Mayor Thoroughbred brings up his talk with Aziz Sultan, Cornwood, and Den "Zel" Shiesty and believes they were screwed over by the system, in part by Ruth who had taken a cop car off-duty to stalk them. The auditors conclude the police is too reactive and not proactive enough.
  8. The Mayor calls for a five-minute break; at the end, he thanks the auditors. Crane announces he has edited the legislation to add the changes from the Mayor; the Mayor instructs him to add that the Chief of Police can pick their assistant. Mayor Thoroughbred offers a summary of his notes to the auditors, consulting the Chief of Staff. These notes are of interviews of the senior officers, mainly Ruby York and Beric Johnson.
  9. Crane says according to Alex Mushkin, hunting has become more lucrative, especially the price of venison, or deer meat; the DOJ will raise the cost of hunting licenses to $3,500.
  10. Malton speaks on crime reporting and offers to change the laws. Crane goves feedback. Deputy Mayor Simone asks Crane a clarifying question, and Crane answers it. Malton solicits feedback from Healthcare Liaison Canter on the matter. He puts the changes to a vote; the Council votes unanimously in favor.
  11. Malton asks for legal protections for lawyers’ notebooks, given they are government employees. After some back and forth between him and Nekoda on whether police need to possess but not read these notebooks when they are subpoenaed (Malton says yes), Malton puts the protections to a vote. The Council votes unanimously in favor.
  12. Nekoda introduces his moonshine legislation classifying it as a drug. Crane directs him to discuss it with the judges later. The legislation is tabled.
  13. Mayor Thoroughbred mentions he is working on Stop-and-Go legislation requiring vehicles to make a full stop at intersections and will introduce it at a later date.
  14. He also asks the Council to meet on Tuesday, March 5 at 8:00 pm PST to hear Mr. Kebun’s plea for a pardon. Most of the Council agrees, except for Siobhan who has a conflict of interest, and Treasurer Hawthorne who is uncertain. Crane also announces that the mobile data terminal has been updated to make issuing licenses easier overall.
  15. Mayor Thoroughbred mentions that a Gruppe 6 worker at Security Clearance Tier 3 brought up the potential for discounts in civilian gun licenses. Crane says he will run the proposal by the state.
  16. Crane also answers a question from Michael relating to criminal law.
  17. Mayor Thoroughbred asks Crane whether the state approved Treasurer Hawthorne’s monetary gift to Hall. Crane affirms so.
  18. Mayor Thoroughbred also asks the Council if deer carcass littering should be upgraded to a felony. He asks Nekoda if anyone has been charged with it, and Nekoda confirms so. He asks Nekoda if it is feasible to lift human suspect DNA off deer carcasses, to which Nekoda says he will see what he can do.
  19. Mayor Thoroughbred also brings up littering on the northwest coast. The Council promises to act on it eventually.
  20. Mayor Thoroughbred asks if the police auditors will get complimentary gun licenses for their work. Crane says no. Mayor Thoroughbred ends the meeting.
Minutes for March 9, 2024
Seventh Council meeting

Seventh legislative meeting, March 9, 2024

Healthcare Liaison Canter is absent.
  1. Mayor Thoroughbred starts the meeting by noting the beneficiary of their first pardon hearing, Mr. Kebun, re-offended within a day. Chief Justice Crane thinks if the evidence had been better, Mr. Kebun would be found more guilty.
  2. Deputy Mayor Simone notes the Sewers are on the verge of collapsing.
  3. Treasurer Hawthorne also wants to add electric vehicle charging stands to the North. Crane says he will look into the matter.
  4. On a related matter, Crane gives an anecdote related to speeding, after Siobhan discusses her narrow avoidance of a felony earlier that week.
  5. Deputy Mayor Simone asks Mayor Thoroughbred how the pardon referral system works with him, noting his acquaintance Dahlia Fey who was charged with being an accomplice to reckless evading, is in need of one.
  6. Law Enforcement Liaison Nekoda introduces his No Suing for Welfare Act, preventing lawsuits for being a Good Samaritan, and limiting prosecutions for unintentional injury or wrongful death. Crane poses the hypothetical of clowns picking up someone with the intent of rendering first aid, while Simone asks about the implications for self-transport. Crane expresses his view that the bill is better as a compelling precedent in court. Nekoda notes the bill’s origins from discussions with the police department and EMS, who are understaffed. Crane points out the police department generally has a high level of public trust, and Nekoda says the idea is to incentivize people to help each other. Mayor Thoroughbred notes he self-transports whenever he can. Nekoda also goes over the Robbery of a Healthcare Professional charge on the same bill, citing recent hostage cases against EMTs, though the charge would be distinct from Robbery of a Law Enforcement Officer charge in that the latter is in the context of increased gun-focused crimes. The law currently has only an aggravated petty robbery charge for the general public. Crane proposes to amend the law enforcement officer charge, which Hawthorne agrees with. There is some discussion of the capabilities of tweezers, bandages, tourniquets and splints and whether they count as government equipment. Mayor Thoroughbred expresses his belief that the EMS deserve increased levels of protection from mugging. Crane asks Nekoda to add measures to deter people from mugging EMTs, and accepts Nekoda’s request that robbery times be halved from 6 to 3 hours. The Council notes that Shift 2 has the most EMTs. They also note that zero people have been caught mugging EMTs. The bill is tabled.
  7. Malton introduces his legislation amending classified information possession laws, noting it mostly applies to government officials. Siobhan notes its necessity after her kidnapping by Sonya Summers and Jessi Adler. Mayor Thoroughbred highlights a potential issue with it, and Crane points out the police will need to extensively investigate the information before determining whether it is classified. After some back-and-forth, the bill is tabled.
  8. The Council briefly mentions the huge amount of work to cover on loans before getting distracted when Crane brings up Glenn Beck whom he enjoys watching and bullion and statues which he enjoys hoarding, and Siobhan mentions people have been panning for gold in the Sewers. There has been a wave of abuses allowing people to use bought cars as collateral then sell them shortly before the loan expires. Siobhan mentions she had a proposal to create a loan company. Mayor Thoroughbred mentions he will hold a town hall soon after the legislative meeting ends. The Council agrees that at minimum, the public sector will not handle lending and all loans must have collateral. Mayor Thoroughbred asks who has been making loan company proposals: Crane answers that Lars Haverford is one example. After more discussion, Crane tells everyone the DOJ will handle the vetting of new loan companies.
  9. Simone also proposes to change the failure to signal laws.
  10. The Council jokes about former Chief of Staff Sweeney’s legal issues in the last month.
  11. Simone introduces the Legislation for Elected Government Individuals with Tenure Act, providing bonuses for people who serve their entire term.
  12. He also introduces the Tenure and Responsibility Under Municipal Performance Act barring subjects of impeachment from serving in public office for 9 months. The Council votes unanimously in favor and the bill passes into law. Crane notes that Mayor Thoroughbred has been unusually silent lately; the latter responds that he is in full support of Simone’s ideas.
  13. The Mayor asks the Council when previous Mayors would schedule their town halls, which Crane and Hawthorne say were very ad hoc.
  14. There is some discussion of raising pay for all government officials, possibly to facilitate more state events. Mayor Thoroughbred votes to raise pay by $200 an hour. Nekoda votes nay. Malton says he will defer to Treasurer Hawthorne’s opinion. Treasurer Hawthorne reluctantly votes yea, as do Malton and Simone. Crane votes yea, and Siobhan votes yea. The pay raise passes, with 6 yeas and 1 nay.
  15. Mayor Thoroughbred mentions he is working on legislation to regulate bicycle patrols for the police department.
  16. He also offers to lower the adoption fee. Crane agrees.
  17. The Mayor, Siobhan and Crane cynically compare various conservative personalities, primarily Glenn Beck, Rush Limbaugh and Mitt Romney. The Mayor goes over his notes from the week’s town halls. He notes a frivolous proposal for a chocolate factory from a vampire named Glen, Lilith Fulker’s request for a pardon for her riot charges, Jamal Abdul Jabbar’s proposals for new fast food restaurants, and Greg Letourneau’s request for a pardon for reckless evading.
  18. Treasurer Hawthorne invites Captain Leonardo Slacks in, after their first police fundraising event. She notes that she doesn’t want random events to be randomly paid for by the city; she wants more effort to be put into the events and tracking their finances.
  19. Slacks discusses a gun training event centered around stand your ground laws, intending civilians to establish a rapport with the police department; he will offer discounts to people who have gone through training. He also wants the Council to figure out how to screen for prison contraband, and the Council agrees. Mayor Thoroughbred and the Council agree to build an upward extension on top of the existing prison border wall. There is some discussion of K-Town, Mr. Kebun's re-established enclave of the prison.
  20. After some miscellaneous discussion, Mayor Thoroughbred ends the meeting and begins preparing for the town hall, which some Council members will be attending.

  3. There is also discussion of changes to adoption fraud laws revolving around fake siblings and grandchildren.
  4. Chief Justice Crane announces he will unilaterally edit out sections of the Penal Code he deems irrelevant.
  5. The Council discusses introducing the death penalty. Chief of Staff Siobhan vows to write it up. Two alternatives to be included in the provisions, letting the Department of Corrections choose the execution method or subjecting convicts to a fight to the death, are outlined.
  6. Government workers will now be required to submit DNA samples, per a new constitutional amendment.
  7. Amendments to the patient privacy law are also considered, then tabled.
  8. There is some discussion of a new restraining order law introduced by Siobhan. Physical proximity without conversation is allowed. The Council points out that not having conversation would be hard to prove; some also believe the courts would be better suited to handle requests for restraining order first-come-first-serve. The bill is tabled.
  9. There is also discussion of a bill to legalize culling the Dan Clan. The bill is tabled.
  10. Medical Liaison Canter mentions she is working on legislation to preemptively classify drugs, consolidate charges and allow police to add whatever drugs and amounts they wish. Head of Bar Malton is angry about some details. Crane also reveals why he thinks marijuana dispensaries are a bad idea. Mayor Thoroughbred agrees.
  11. Crane asks Mayor Thoroughbred about the latter's home loan company proposal.
  12. There is heated discussion of the EGO Act. Some changes to the Act are proposed. The Council does not pass them, with a majority voting nay.

City Council meeting March 23 2024

Ninth legislative meeting, March 23, 2024

Head of Bar Malton is absent. Duncan Fenwell, Beric Johnson, Ruby York, Cletus Cornwood, Oshiera Petros and Timo Korhonen are in the room for most of the meeting’s duration. Ursula Leichenberg is filming for the first time.

  1. Andi Jones shows up to pitch her economic development plan for Paleto, which involves a 48-contestant games tournament. Mayor Thoroughbred asks if she wants to create a business around it, which she affirms, and she says there is a warehouse open for the tournament. The Council’s understanding is that she is trusted enough to get the money.
  2. Cornwood pitches the Little Alamo Sheriff’s Office, which would function as a community mediator between the LSPD and the north, with the possibility of holding sting operations. He and the police officers present introduce the context that there has been a spike in bootlegging and marijuana growing, and police findings of illegal distilleries are increasing, despite Mayor Thoroughbred getting them to reveal that there have been no arrests for these since March 14. The new Sheriff would be elected and hold similar powers to the Chief of the LSPD; the police of the island would be responsible for voting to break ties between the two.
  3. Carmine is pitching his new developments to the prison, called Dogtown. The hires for employees he is considering include Brick James, Gary Kebun, Eugene Zuckerberg, Gregory Johnson, Scotty Bard, Chris King, Korhonen, Justin DeMarco, Winslow Jackson, Richard Woytkiw, Vill Ager, Mr. Kebun, Chestanisberg Andersonisburgenson, Vivek Ramasquamy, Lilith Fulker, and Vingle Dan. The Council is receptive, particularly after he shows his video. Chief Justice Crane rejects those with convictions as violent felons.
  4. Oshiera Petros pitches her for-profit towing subdivision of the LSPD which would also handle basic repairs of police cars; she wants an expungement and an LSPD budget item for it. The Council likes the idea, though Mayor Thoroughbred suggests the police hire her directly.
  5. Chief of Police Beric Johnson complains about his 10% pay cut. Mayor Thoroughbred tells him it is deserved, and introduces his idea for a quota system for police arrests, to improve the crime rate. The central quota is 50 points per week for a police pay raise. He reveals his points schedule for each crime. Meeting the 50 points would enable a 5 percent pay raise. Mayor Thoroughbred wants to join the LSPD for a day to oversee the plan. Assistant Chief York explains that more police officers are leaving from the pay cut, but Chief Justice Crane responds that the police complaint is an unreasonably emotional response, which York tries to rebut. Mayor Thoroughbred mentions he had slashed income tax by half to 5 percent. He says the police should rely more on bicycle patrols, as annoyed as he is by it. He assures them they will not freeze hiring and also says the weekly quota is quite low and manageable to the point five cops working 56 hours a week can achieve it, to which Johnson agrees, despite York’s reservations. Mayor Thoroughbred entreats the police officers into staying.
  6. There is a calm but tense discussion between Mayor Thoroughbred and Law Enforcement Liaison Nekoda over police morale. Healthcare Liaison Canter contributes her own suggestion to redefining grand larceny. Suggestions from Cornwood and Deputy Mayor Simone follow.
  7. Mayor Thoroughbred introduces his charge changes to grand larceny of auto parts. A $10,000 fine would be levied, and a felony charge would be attached. The Council passes the change, with the votes being 6 yeas, 1 nay (Crane).
  8. Canter introduces changes to the violent acts on government property charge, noting a spike in clowns stabbing people in the hospital. Nekoda also notes the increase in littering in the police headquarters. The charge changes are tabled.
  9. Simone introduces his TMNT, preventing people from accessing the Sewers. Manholes are also haphazardly being left open. The bill does not pass, as the Council votes majority nay.
  10. Crane proposes his amendments to the expungement process. The council votes unanimously in favor, and the amendments pass.
  11. Simone also mentions he is working on the TURF Act, barring people from claiming the streets, parks and other public lands as gang turf, making them neutral zones.
  12. Chief of Staff Siobhan Thoroughbred proposes her ‘Duty to Retreat’ exemptions to the ‘Stand Your Ground’ law, which apply only to primary residences. They specify that leaving a hostile situation is the default legal strategy for dealing with an assault on one’s home, and ‘Stand Your Ground’ applies if leaving is prevented. Crane, Canter and Treasurer Hawthorne ask questions, expressing their skepticism; the bill is tabled.
  13. Mayor Thoroughbred introduces his unauthorized business infractions law, incentivizing people to actually pursue a business license so the state can attain sales tax revenue, and imposing a $75,000 fine and misdemeanor charge for violators. Nekoda asks if social media posts count, to which Mayor Thoroughbred says the bill does not cover most food establishments. Assistant Chief York asks if nonprofits apply, but Chief Justice Crane responds that nonprofits are forbidden from operating in the state. Crane raises the objection of police fining people for running a lemonade stand, which Mayor Thoroughbred addresses. An allowance of one police warning is added. Repair shop designations would be up to police discretion. The Council votes unanimously in favor, and the bill passes.
  14. Mayor Thoroughbred and Siobhan introduce a possible change to the adoption policy, dealing with serial daisy-chaining of adoptions, resulting in great-great grandparent adoptions. The bill is tabled.
  15. Mayor Thoroughbred thanks Leichenberg for filming, and ends the meeting.

Minutes for March 30, 2024
  1. Head of Bar Malton addresses the Civilian Oversight Board. He hasn't gotten to Sunny Brooks yet, Ursula will be helping him get the word out and organize it later that day.
  2. Law Enforcement Liaison Nekoda discusses issues with Grime drivers—they keep dumping their trailers at the Paleto gas station, annoying residents.
  3. Chief Justice Crane takes issue with the huge amount of fines being levied in the criminal laws; turbocharger theft, for example, has an exorbitant fine.
  4. The Council hears a presentation from an inmate. He doesn't enjoy prison and he doesn't do crime now because he hates the DOC. Inside the prison inmates are treated as if they have no names and are only known as "maggot”. The wardens stabbed him once. EMS aren’t allowed to respond to prison calls. Mayor Thoroughbred adds that he saw someone cut off the arms of someone else inside prison.
  5. Healthcare Liaison Canter introduces legislation to schedules of drugs to be simplifying drugs down to 6 different charges from 17. Many drugs not on the streets were taken off during the uprising, leaving only marijuana; the Council says the new schedule might make reports hard, but law enforcement can use tags. There will be no Schedule 1 misdemeanors. When a new drug emerges the council will vote upon its scheduling. Mayor Thoroughbred says the Council can just try the drug to prove their vote, but Crane has been sober for four years and rejects the idea of democratic bodies setting times and fines for drugs. The votes are Crane and Mayor Nay, all others Yea, and the bill passes.
  6. Siobhan introduces her changes to the death penalty bill with Canter; they allow some public viewing of executions. The amendments pass, as the Council votes unanimously in favor.
  7. The Mayor introduces his legislation to repeal the adoption fraud law which would also reimburse the 11 people who paid a fine. After Crane takes him out of the room to discuss the motive of running for the next election, which he finds amusing, the bill passes, as the Council votes unanimously in favor, and they revel in the reactions on Twatter.
  8. Crane invites everyone to an appellate hearing. The meeting ends.

Minutes for April 6, 2024
The Thoroughbreds are 16 minutes late. Kyle Pred keeps interrupting loudly on the other side of the door.
  1. Deputy Mayor Simone asks Healthcare Liaison Canter about professionalism within the medical workforce. He explains that Dr. Montez Belair is bullying Rod Long and getting away with it.
  2. Law Enforcement Liaison Nekoda is concerned about Maze Bank robberies and the use of dinghies in canals to escape. He is also concerned about helicopter thefts.
  3. Head of Bar Malton raises the question of lawyer pay, having gotten multiple complaints. He is aware that lawyers are also competing more intensely for clients.
  4. Canter mentions marijuana still has yet to be scheduled.
  5. Chief Justice Crane complains he is not getting paid as a Council member, only as a judge. He notes the Thoroughbreds did not get paid for the police audit. The Mayor agrees to pay him as a Council member.
  6. Crane also notes he nearly got ran over by a tow truck and wishes to increase criminal penalties for tow truckers.
  7. Treasurer Hawthorne notes that Andi Jones’ event earlier that week went well.
  8. Hawthorne also wants microphones in Bahama Mama’s.
  9. She also says that Kermy Fulker wants to do garbage pickups in the Sewers. Mayor Thoroughbred proposes to organize volunteer pickup days, and the Council also raises the idea of having Wardens Charles and Costello use prison inmates to do the collecting.
  10. Wardens Charles and Costello present their case for rebuilding Dog Town again. They held the first boot camp, but multiple fatalities ensued. They are asking for police surveillance of themselves to stop. Warden Charles is also interested in the trash pickup idea but prefers to use chain gangs; the trash pickup idea is then dropped. Warden Costello brandishes his gun. The list of prospective guards includes Gary Kebun, Scotty Bard, Winslow Jackson, Vill Ager, Chestanisberg Andersonisburgenson, Richard Woytkiw, Carmella Corset, Capped Tarranova, Lily Dubois, Rusty Bumblebear, and Irwin Dundee; the first five are hired.
  11. Treasurer Hawthorne asks Crane if people are renting multiple stalls outside the administration office. Crane confirms they aren’t.
  12. Deputy Mayor Simone brings up the Grime workers’ increasing abandonment of Grime trailers to save weight and shave a minute off runs. The Council dismisses their excuses, while Crane calls Marlo Stanfield to ask for his expert advice and work out a deal. The Thoroughbreds note they did a ride-along with some Grime drivers and found the drivers were not in breach of contract regarding weight limits.
  13. Chief of Staff Siobhan introduces her changes to the death penalty law. She has discovered medical workers Tanner Phillips and Ammori Grimm are illegally providing care to the prisoners. She also says there will be no public execution events. The amendments pass into law, as the Council votes unanimously in favor.
  14. Mayor Thoroughbred introduces his bill to strip away the rights of mimes and end their wars with the clowns. He recounts an incident where Jagger Gerardy left a mime corpse in City Hall. He also notes Crane hunted mimes for some time. A mime hunting season is proposed; Malton also wants to rescind the rights of clowns. The Council decides felonious clowns in debt must convert their fines into extra prison time. Malton and Nekoda, however, object over the definition of a mime, viewing it as too vague. Canter, Hawthorne and Malton abstain, Nekoda votes nay, Crane, Siobhan, Mayor Thoroughbred, and Simone vote yea, and the bill passes.
  15. Malton asks Mayor Thoroughbred where sheriff elections fit within the police continuity plan, and proposes that elections be held concurrently with City Council elections.
  16. The meeting ends.

Minutes for April 13, 2024
The Thoroughbreds are 16 minutes late again. Treasurer Hawthorne is absent.
  1. The Council discusses getting Clerk Mushkin-Domino and Leichenberg to match notes and video.
  2. Chief Justice Crane brings up the Sheriff’s election, telling the Mayor he needs to revise the Police Continuity Plan. Mayor Thoroughbred pledges to speak to Chief of Police Johnson. Crane and Chief of Staff Siobhan go on a tangent about microbes, the former being skeptical of their existence, as well as proclaiming his prostate issues. Healthcare Liaison Canter joins in and offers to help.
  3. The Mayor asks Law Enforcement Liaison Nekoda for legislation. Nekoda introduces changes to laws on license plate displays, particularly on dirt bikes; the registry would be handled by the police department. Crane puts up some minor objections, as does Deputy Mayor Simone. Crane details some conversations he had had with Tessa Lamb on the matter. Crane asks for the Mayor’s opinion: the Mayor doesn’t care, pointing out the bill might infringe on people’s freedom to drive. The bill is tabled.
  4. There is some banter between Simone and Canter over ambulance starts. Canter introduces legislation relating to the DM Act, and frequent replacements of engines. The Council might remove ambulance engines from the Act, as only other parts matter. The Mayor and Chief Justice interject, noting they increased mechanic pay to $1,300 an hour.
  5. The Mayor asks Head of Bar Malton, who announces that while he is working on mandatory minimum laws, he does not support them personally, and he has decided to let DOJ candidates in the upcoming election campaign for or against it, putting the internal DOJ vote off until later.
  6. Head of Bar Malton also says he is working on legislation resolving questions on whether judges should be allowed to run for Head of Bar. He proposes they do not get their positions back after running. Mayor Thoroughbred asks who is running: the candidate list includes Serge Cross, Moose Knuckles, Murphy Braun, and Cornwood.
  7. Crane insults mayoral candidate and Civilian Oversight Board member Archie Archer after having just gotten a call from him. Mayor Thoroughbred puts in his thoughts, then lets Crane, Canter and Malton go back and forth on how other positions may apply. Crane says he does not want police high command on the Council due to potential conflicts of interest.
  8. Healthcare Liaison Canter asks the Council to authorize metal detectors at the hospital after an attack from the Bondi Boys MC on clowns littering the hospital, noting doctors are not allowed to have guns on duty. Simone says she is making the bill for more personal reasons involving Rod Long, which Canter denies; Malton also offers feedback on the bill. The Mayor says the bill is not powerful enough and suggests adding prison time for offenders; Malton and Crane object, and instead say they should be ineligible for pardons and parole, citing its potential effects on lawyer morale. The Council votes unanimously in favor and the bill passes.
  9. After a break in which Malton asks Crane for access to the Clerk’s notes, Canter puts forward her report recommending marijuana should be on Schedule III, partially legalizing it, to the Council’s acclaim. The Council votes unanimously in favor.
  10. The Mayor asks Crane for his plans, given the mayoral debate is in three hours and the ballots are being finalized. He speaks about how the Council helps against loneliness and one-man rule; he is proud of his creation and thanks them. Canter concurs, saying there will be no Council as unique as the current one.
  11. The Deputy Mayor asks that criminal charges against impersonating security workers be added. Crane agrees to edit them later. The Council votes unanimously in favor.
  12. Simone also introduces a monthly pass system for the Sewers, to limit the sewer people’s movement on the surface. The public will have to pay two sewer pennies to the clerks to obtain them.
  13. Chief of Staff Siobhan introduces legislation to strengthen the commons and prevent individuals from claiming public buildings as their own. After a tangent involving the Mayor having a fursona, Canter brings up the small clinic in Paleto as an addition to the list.
  14. Siobhan also introduces changes to the traffic laws, specifically a diversion program. Recounting the anecdote that led to her creating the changes, she says it will help first-time felons get their criminal records wiped to better integrate into society. Judges will have final say over who qualifies. The Council votes unanimously in favor, and the changes pass into law.
  15. Mayor Thoroughbred introduces his bill outlawing miming. Crane immediately offers his suggested edits, which the Mayor approves. The Council votes unanimously in favor, and the bill passes.
  16. The meeting ends.

The End of the City Council[]

JusticesAnnouncement

Justices announcing the new State Constitution
July 10, 2024

The City Council effectively ended once Alan Crane retired as its Chief Justice on July 2, 2024. Newly promoted Justice Brittany Angel and Justice Norman Adams concluded that they need to rewrite and broaden the Los Santos Constitution. Their changes dissolved the City Council and split the island into two jurisdictions with their own legislations, Los Santos County and Blaine County, who would have their own Mayors with the power to appoint their own Chief of Police and Sheriff respectively for their county. In a state announcement on July 8, 2024, Justice Brittany Angel announced that the application process had been opened for the Blaine County Mayor and Los Santos County Mayor elections. In a subsequent state announcement, Justice Angel announced a third public office open for election: the San Andreas Medical Authority Director. Joined by a new contributor Justice John Bailey, the Justices presented a State of the Union on July 10, 2024 to usher in the new Constitution of the State of San Andreas and legislation changes. The legislation establishing the City Council was removed.
