5. ACTION ITEM
1. COUNCIL COMMITTEE ROOM ASSIGNMENTS
Councilmember Tibbott recalled the Council previously discussed room assignments for committee
meetings. As the Parks, Planning & Public Works (PPP) Committee often has citizens attending meetings,
it would be helpful to hold the meeting in a space larger than the Jury Meeting Room.
COUNCILMEMBER MESAROS MOVED, SECONDED BY COUNCILMEMBER FRALEY-
MONILLAS, TO HAVE THE PARKS, PLANNING & PUBLIC WORKS COMMITTEE MEET IN
THE POLICE TRAINING ROOM AND THE PUBLIC SAFETY & PERSONNEL COMMITTEE
MEET IN THE JURY MEETING ROOM.
Council President Pro Tern Buckshnis did not support the motion as she preferred the Finance Committee
meet in the Jury Meeting Room, recalling that was the location for many years. She suggested the PPP
Committee meet in Council Chambers, commenting it may be difficult for the public wishing to attend a
PPP Committee meeting to find the Police Training Room.
Councilmember Johnson concurred with Councilmember Buckshnis, preferring the PPP Committee meet
in Council Chambers.
Councilmember Fraley-Monillas suggested trying the proposed locations tonight and if it works well,
putting notices on the door on committee nights identifying where the committees are meeting.
UPON ROLL CALL, MOTION CARRIED (4-3), MAYOR PRO TEM NELSON AND
COUNCILMEMBERS FRALEY-MONILLAS, MESAROS, AND TIBBOTT VOTING YES; AND
COUNCILMEMBERS JOHNSON AND TEITZEL AND COUNCIL PRESIDENT PRO TEM
BUCKSHNIS VOTING NO.
