Council names members to ad hoc charter review committee after removing item from consent agenda
Summary
Councilor Roberts removed a consent-item nomination so the council could announce the appointees by name. The council approved an ad hoc charter review committee with Dr. David Drotsman as chair and members Monique Brantley, Karen Jones, Paul Woverton, Kendra Stone, Rod Harden and Val Hoxie.
Hermiston City Council approved the recommended appointments to an ad hoc charter review committee after a councilor asked that the names be read aloud rather than approved on the consent agenda. Councilor Roberts requested the change, saying the city charter is “arguably the most important document that governs our city” and that the public should hear the nominees’ names.
Councilor Roberts then read the appointments recommended on the consent agenda. The council approved the appointments by unanimous roll call. The council did not discuss the committee’s detailed charge at length during the meeting but indicated the committee will help review the city charter and support any future charter-related actions.
