Governance committee continues agenda-procedure resolution for further work
Summary
The committee moved to continue the item on adopting a procedure to establish what comes before council and committees to a future meeting; the chair announced the item would be continued for additional work.
The governance committee deferred action Monday on a resolution titled "adopt procedure to establish what comes before council and committees." With time running short and several committee members indicating the draft needs more work, the chair announced the item would be continued to a future governance committee meeting.
The chair explained the resolution is "pretty outdated and needs some work on it" and asked whether the committee preferred to move the item to a future meeting. Committee members indicated they were amenable; the clerk confirmed the chair's announcement that the item will be continued. No formal roll-call vote was required after the chair announced the continuation.
Why it matters: The resolution addresses how items are placed on council and committee agendas. The chair said additional review and revision are needed so the committee can return the resolution later in a refined form.
Next steps: The chair indicated the committee will return to this item at a later date; no new vote date was set during the meeting transcript. The governance committee's next meeting is scheduled for June 9 and the full council work session with a consultant is May 12.
