Subject: CC Item #20 Changing the order of the Reports by Council and Staff
Dear Mayor Scharf and Council Members,
Why does the Staff Report not discuss WHY this item was requested? The "why" behind a change is very important and
should be documented!
I can understand that if the Staff Reports are moved to the beginning of the City Council meetings then they are free to
go home which is wonderful and may also save the City in overtime payments.
I do not agree with moving the City Council Reports to the beginning of the CC meetings because I feel that allowing the
Council Members to hear all the public input for all items BEFORE the Council Members get to speak allows them to
request future items for the agenda. Having it at the beginning of the meeting means all the public comments are
forgotten and nothing is done - why bother?!?
Sincerely,
Peggy Griffin
