Wow - the city council has no control over who gets a star and what stars stay and what stars go. That is decided by the chamber of commerce, which has stated many time that it does not remove stars, which are part of its status as a national landmark. Lots of outlets reporting what OP posted, so he can be forgiven for thinking this is fact.

The Trump era is all about breaking the norms.
the city is having to pay hundreds of thousands of dollars for security for Trump's star on the Walk of Fame, as Trump publicly trashes Hollywood, California and linerals daily.
I don't expect you to know or understand any of the intricacies of what's going on locally here in my area though.
