SUBJECT: REFERRAL TO THE COMMITTEE OF THE WHOLE A DISCUSSION
REGARDING STAFF PARTICIPATION AT COMMISSION ORGANIZED
MEETINGS.
Staff currently attends various community meetings, neighborhood/business association
meetings, Mayor on the Move meetings, as well as organizes community meetings to
solicit feedback on various projects including CIP related work. Requests for staff to
attend Commission organized meetings have begun to increase. In order to be responsive
to Commission needs while managing staff time, I would like to establish a policy or
guidelines for staff requested attendance at these meetings. Therefore, I am requesting a
referral to the Committee of the Whole meeting to discuss this subject.
I am available if you should have any questions.
