Charter Commission <br />August 23, 2007 <br />Page 2 <br />APPROVED <br />44 OLD BUSINESS <br />45 <br />46 A. Review of July 23rd Meeting with City Council -Chair Duffy provided a report on the July <br />47 23rd meeting with the City Council. She stated she had requested additional funding to cover <br />48 potential attorney fees to review the amendment as well as any publishing costs to get the <br />49 Commission's viewpoint to the public. The Council did not approve the request but said a <br />50 request could be made with an estimate provided. It was brought up that the Citizens Task <br />51 Force had cart -blanche and did not need expense reports. A request was made to include <br />52 Commissioner Trehus' piece about the Charter Commission in the City Newsletter. The <br />53 Council did not agree to include the 'Fact or Fiction' portion, but the paragraph describing <br />54 the Charter Commission was included in the latest Newsletter. The Commission discussed <br />55 the funding request that will be forthcoming once estimates have been received from possible <br />56 attorneys. <br />57 <br />58 B. Charter Communication Plan- Commissioner Trehus requested input from the <br />59 Commission regarding the Charter Commission Communication piece. He indicated one <br />60 option is the 'Fact or Fiction' and 'Who is the Charter Commission'; the other option would <br />61 be the letter format about the Charter Commission that the Subcommittee presented to the <br />62 Commission a couple of months ago. Chair Duffy informed the Commission there was an <br />63 article in the Quad about the special meeting that had some errors. She contacted the writer <br />"-• 64 of the article to correct the errors, and also asked about the Charter Commission being able to <br />65 get something in the Revolving Door in the Quad. The writer had said that would work out <br />66 fine and that the Citizens Task Force would be asked for their input as well. Commissioner <br />67 Vacha suggested the Charter Commission pay to put an article in the newspaper so they are <br />68 not dependent on anyone else's timeline. The cost of the article would be included in the <br />69 estimate for the funding request. The Commissioners agreed that the suggestion to pay for <br />70 the article is a good idea. Discussion regarding the Charter Communication Plan related to <br />71 the following: 1) legal review to ensure what is stated is accurate; 2) timing to run the ad a <br />72 couple of times prior to the election; 3) run the ad in the Quad and the Citizen; 4) desired <br />73 content of the article and whether to include Fact or Fiction. <br />74 <br />75 Discussion on the topic of the Charter Communication Plan was discontinued while <br />76 Commissioner Trehus excused himself to look for additional information pertaining to the <br />77 Communication Plan in relation to the Charter and citizen rights. <br />78 <br />79 Consensus of the Commission was to move Agenda Item 6E & 6F up next in the agenda. <br />80 Following action on Agenda Items 6E & 6F, the Commission returned to discussion on the <br />81 Charter Communication Plan (Commissioner Trehus returned to the meeting). <br />82 <br />83 MOTION by Commissioner Trehus, seconded by Commissioner Dahl, to revisit the Charter <br />84 Commission Communication Plan at the September 6, 2007 Commission meeting, and to <br />85 determine at that time what communication piece will be used. <br />86 <br />87 Commissioner Bor arrived at 7:18 p.m. <br />2 <br />
