Scappoose committee approves agenda edits and new team agreement; moves goals discussion to February
Summary
The committee approved the meeting agenda with the removal of item 2.4, approved December 12 minutes, adopted an updated team agreement clarifying a 10‑day notice requirement to add agenda items, and agreed to postpone the economic development goals discussion to the February meeting.
At the start of the session a member moved to "approve the agenda without 2.4." The motion was seconded and the committee recorded assent from members present; the chair stated "so it's been approved." No detailed roll‑call vote was read into the record.
The minutes for the December 12 meeting were moved and approved by voice vote.
Committee members reviewed a proposed team agreement change that adds a line requiring committee members to "contact the chair and city staff at least 10 days prior to a meeting if you wish to add an item to the upcoming agenda." A member raised that 10 days may be long; staff explained the change aligns the request with packet preparation (the Monday before packets are distributed). A motion to adopt the updated team agreement was made and seconded; members voted in favor and the chair recorded the adoption.
Later in the meeting staff requested the committee move discussion and a vote on economic development committee goals to a future session without the 10‑day notice period. Members agreed to move the item to the February 20 meeting (the chair and members voiced assent). One committee member asked that members get feedback before the retreat on January 25; the group agreed to consider that timing.
The meeting did not record formal roll‑call tallies for voice votes; outcomes were recorded as voice consensus or majority assent in the minutes.
