Background Information

 

On September 10, 2019 Commission provided direction to approve a uniform policy making two shirts available at election time for incoming Commissioners, at year three Commissioners will be provided another shirt, one name tag furnished yearly, and business cards as needed.

 

Section 2-24 of the City Code regulates which supplies for City Commissioners are to be paid for by the City and which are the responsibility of the individual Commissioner. This ordinance removes Section 2-24(b) supplies and allows for them to be adopted via a Policy Resolution scheduled for the November 24, 2020 Commission meeting.

 

First Reading: On November 10, 2020, Commission gave direction to continue Ordinance No. 2020-43 for second reading to a date to be determined with the following changes: removing Section 2.24 in its entirety including the travel section and when the resolution is brought back for Commission discussion and approval, to include the language clean-up on item A.1. (line 36) and also to put language regarding overages to Commission travel budget reimbursements.

 

The ordinance has been modified to remove Section 2.24 in its entirety and reviewed by legal.
