Brentwood councilmember requests ability to investigate why city employees are leaving

The Brentwood City Council this week will consider a request to expand its own ability to mandate internal investigations of city employees. 

The request was brought forward by Councilmember Jovita Mendoza, who previously raised the point that former Parks and Recreation staff had contacted her about issues taking place behind the scenes of the department that oversees various city facilities, including the Brentwood Senior Activity Center and the aquatic complex, along with parks, events, trails and more.
