Gloria’s husband was in attendance and was presented with the proclamation. REPORTS: Council Member Smith requested that Reports and Announcements be moved to the end of the meeting rather than the beginning stating residents normally attend council meetings for specific items on the agenda. City Administrator Zuleger requested council direction to place this item on the June 19, 2012 council meeting. Council Member Emmons suggested either limiting the time frame if the item remains at the beginning or move it to the end if we are unable or unwilling to limit the time. Mayor Johnston expressed his view that if it were moved to the end, the Report section would prove to be less than informative than at the beginning. Council Member Pearson expressed he would agree the meetings may be more productive if we move it towards the end of the meeting. Council Member Park concurred she was fine with moving it to the end of the meeting so that council meeting attendees may not have to sit through the lengthy report section.
