As the reorganized Menifee City Council met for the first time, a long-awaited decision on what will become the ill-fated Krikorian Movie Theater’s aging retail buildings was made at the December 17 regular meeting.
It was the first time newly elected Menifee Mayor Ricky Estrada banged the gavel to open the regular city council meeting with newly elected Dan Temple from District 3 , reelected Bob Karwin from District 1, and continuing council member Dean Deines, District 4, affirming their presence. Absent was a soon-to-be-appointed District 2 council member who will take long-time council Lesa Sobek's place on the dias.
A short time earlier Estrada, Karwin, and Temple took their new pledges to office before applauding residents and friends in the council chambers in a special meeting
