Scott briefed council on ordinance C-36795, which would, if adopted, add a formal code definition for 'divisions' and rearrange city departments into named divisions and standalone cabinet-level departments. Scott listed proposed division leadership and departmental groupings, naming staff who would lead each unit if the ordinance is approved.

Councilmember Dylan asked staff to plan a resident-facing communications rollout (packet or zine) to explain where residents should go for services under the new structure. Scott said a large-format organizational chart is in development and will be provided to council.

Councilmember Teles moved to suspend rules to allow amendments to C-36795 without triggering automatic deferral; the motion was seconded. Councilmember Justin Bingham argued against immediate suspension, saying the matter was not urgent, while Councilmember McCadcar said the suspension aligned with the spirit of prior rules changes that allow time for amendments. The council approved suspension by voice vote, with one registered 'I' noted during the call for ayes.
