The Proclamation is the second agenda item so please be on time at 7 p.m. to the meeting. Sr. Spojmie Nasiri and Br. Munir Safi will speak on behalf of Pleasanton Muslims.
Last year, then-Vice Mayor Karla Brown presented the Proclamation, which acknowledges the rich history and guiding virtues of American Muslims, and commends Muslim communities in California for the lasting positive impact they have made, and continue to make, toward the advancement of the state and the nation.

The Pleasanton City Council follows in the steps of other City Councils in the San Francisco Bay Area, like Santa Clara, Union City, Oakland, San Jose, and Redwood City.
