During the March 2022 Council meeting, Mayor Knisley asked to bring an agenda item before
the Council to consider dedicating the Iris Garden at the Train Depot to former Mayor Hazel

Mrs. Hineline served the Loomis community, in several different capacities, for many years. She
was first elected to the Town Council in 1988, and again in 2000. She also served as Town
Treasurer and served on the Planning Commission. She also served as the Executive Director
of the Chamber of Commerce, and was instrumental in establishing the Iris Garden itself.
RECOMMENDED ACTION
Staff recommends the Council authorize the Town Manager to commission a plaque
honoring former Mayor Hazel Hineline, with a not to exceed amount of $800 and
schedule a ceremony to dedicate the Iris Garden at the Train Depot in Hazel’s honor.
Hazel passed away February 14, 2022.
