Adjourning Motion enacted to honor the life of MVCC’s Director Martin Rubin at City Hall

On Friday June 27th, an Adjourning Motion was enacted to honor the life of MVCC’s Director Martin Rubin at City Hall. CD 11 Council Member Traci Park delivered a beautiful tribute speaking of his many years of service and dedication to the Mar Vista Community and his mission to create a park in place of the Santa Monica Airport. Martin’s brother Jerry Rubin was there to accept the beautiful city certificate presented to Martin. 

In a legislative or formal body, a "motion to adjourn with someone's passing" refers to a procedural action where the assembly formally ends its session for the day as a mark of respect to the memory of a deceased individual. This is a traditional way for a deliberative body to honor the life and contributions of someone who has passed away, particularly when that person had a connection to the assembly (e.g., a member, former member, or a figure of significance to the community or state). 

• Show of Respect: It's a symbolic gesture to express sorrow and honor the memory of the deceased.
• Reflection and Tribute: It allows members time to reflect and potentially offer tributes or condolences.
• Traditional Practice: It's a long-standing tradition in many legislative bodies.

MVCC at Summer Venice Fest

We had a fun in the sun day at the Summer Venice Fest last Saturday. I woke my son up to help me set up our new pop up at 6 am. Couldn't have done it without him. We had lots of folks come to the booth, chat with us, grab some branded fun items  and they left with some info about MVCC. Our booth was set up with Council woman Traci Park's booth as our neighbor. She and her team engaged with the community as well. It was a good time with community friends-old and new, food and chats. Thanks to Delaram, Greg, and April for popping in and keeping me company throughout the day.
