Council adopts updated meeting and executive‑session procedures, tightens remote participation rules
Summary
Council adopted Resolution 26‑08 updating council procedures and board protocols, including a requirement that remote participants keep cameras on and a prohibition on remote participation in executive sessions; councilmembers raised a separate request to revisit new‑business submission rules.
City Manager Michael Binion presented proposed updates to council procedures and board protocols intended to clarify executive‑session practice and remote participation rules. The changes require remote participants to keep their camera on throughout the meeting and prohibit remote participation in executive sessions; the city attorney also reworked executive‑session language to reflect current practice.
Councilmembers generally supported the changes but several members urged further conversation about new‑business procedures and how items are added to meeting agendas. The council adopted Resolution 26‑08 and staff will incorporate the updated procedures into council and board materials.
