Council debates committee structure; adopts soils-testing code amendment on second reading
Summary
Council debated the value and burden of recent ad hoc committees, agreed to table further committee-structure decisions, and unanimously approved Ordinance 9 on second reading amending the municipal code regarding soils testing for residential additions.
Council members spent a portion of the June 1 meeting reviewing recent changes to committee structure after staff reported that the new committees were creating redundancy and extra workload. Council discussion ranged from keeping citizen participation in committees to concerns about siloing and staff capacity; the council voted to table the committee-structure discussion to the June 18 meeting for further work.
Later in the meeting council considered Ordinance 9, amending section 15.04.030L of the municipal code concerning soils testing for residential additions. Council moved for second-reading approval and the ordinance passed unanimously.
