Councilmember Elnagdy referenced a memorandum received today related to potential ordinance amendments the City could take to limit the activity of ICE in the community and believed that those items should be further discussed. Councilmember Doolan stated that perhaps an agenda item could be added to a future worksession for additional discussion on that topic. She stated that she has received input from City Council members in other communities that they should perhaps discuss. Mayor Webster stated that perhaps an additional worksession should be scheduled for that topic alone, where legal counsel could be present. Councilmember Jenson suggested that they hold that meeting sooner and not wait an additional two weeks. 3
