Summary

The subcommittee accepted a motion to withdraw item 8 (three positions for a Citizen Law Enforcement Review Committee clerk) without objection and moved to bring item 7 (living-wage budget resolution) before the committee for further consideration.

During agenda consideration, legislative counsel explained that item 8 — a resolution to create and fund three positions for a Citizen Law Enforcement Review Committee clerk — had failed at the prior meeting and could be withdrawn by sponsor or department. Commissioner Wright moved to withdraw item 8; Vice Chair Avant seconded. The chair asked whether the withdrawal could be accepted without objection, and the motion was recorded as "so moved" and accepted without objection.

Separately, Vice Chair Avant moved and Commissioner Wright seconded to bring item 7 (the living-wage budget resolution) before the subcommittee so it could be discussed. Commissioners then debated timing and sequencing with the companion ordinance and a compensation study. The withdrawing of item 8 cleared that item from the subcommittee's immediate agenda; the living-wage resolution was deferred for further review on April 23.

The actions were procedural and no new staffing or appropriations were approved at the session.
