To Approve Resolution 5450, a Resolution Granting a Leave of Absence to Council Member Thomason. Ayes – 4 Nays – 0 Motion carried. E. Discussion and Appointment of Departmental Liaison Positions, as per Charter. Mayor Coughlin provided the Council with a memorandum he had prepared, and read as follows: “Upon further review of the charter, I have found that Section 3.02 of the charter has not been followed for a number of years. The section in question states: ‘Section 3.02. Liaison Function. Council members shall be assigned as liaison to City departments. Their assignments shall be rotated periodically and shall involve no administrative responsibility.’ In order to fulfill the requirement stated in the above-mentioned section, I would recommend the following assignments: Rob Marty Community Development Gary Quick Public Works; Golf Course Lynne Thomason Finance Roger Stigney Police Dan Coughlin Administration Please keep in mind that only the full council can give direction to staff and so these liaison positions are simply to be viewed as another opportunity to promote communication between the council and the City staff.
