Special note from Mayor West to RULE supporters: Please note two dates for City Council items of interest...respond directly to Jennifer West
Some upcoming items to talk about at RULE:
Oct. 16 will have a few things of interest on the agenda:
- Ken Bukowski's EPOA ballot initiative for a study session at 6:30 -7:15.
- Another item is to talk about the committee structure at the city:
- council appointments to the committees (potentially changing from 2 council members to one -- there are too many meetings for us!)
- committee make up, possibly including more residents/business reps on committees, and I have placed (as part of that discussion) an item about
- changing the way mayor is selected (top vote getter in election becomes mayor 2 years after election and for 2 years)
- moving elections to even years (higher turn out).
Note from Judy: Jac Asher has informed us that at this meeting she will bring up a reconsideration of the approval of the Parkside development plan to remove 33 trees
Nov. 6 will have the next trees study session at 6:30-7:15.
Thanks!
Jennifer
