The public got its first look inside the new council chambers, including one feature that's already drawing attention: a large structural support beam in the middle of the room.
Richard Sepulveda found himself sitting directly behind it.
The opening of the new Stockton City Hall has been a decade in the making.
The city purchased the former office building in 2017 to replace its century-old City Hall.
Civic leader Bishop Dwight Williams is hopeful the new look will mean a new era for a city coming off a grand jury report blasting the council for dysfunction.
"We're the tenth-largest city in the state of California," Williams said. "Stockton is not a minor player. It's a major player in California, and so we'll have major problems, major challenges."
Just don't expect everyone to want the seat behind the beam.
