CityCouncil | 2007-05-15 | 11 | Mayor Johnson inquired whether Mr. Arnerich would support the Council adding him, former Councilmember Barbara Kerr and Woody Minor to the committee. Mr. Arnerich responded that he did not want to serve; stated Golf Commissioner Bob Wood would be good. Councilmember deHaan stated Woody Minor should give a presentation [at the forum] ; actual Appellants should be added to the committee. Mayor Johnson inquired whether the Appellants could select three designees. Mr. Arnerich responded many excellent people could serve; going to people outside the Planning Board to carry out the Council's wishes is the most appropriate way to go. Mayor Johnson stated there is a perception that the subcommittee members have a preference. Councilmember Gilmore stated the three subcommittee members along with three the Appellants, selected by the Appellants, could get together and come up with structure for going forward with the Measure A discussion; inquired whether putting more people on the subcommittee means that the meetings would have to be noticed stated the group would meet to set up a forum; the six people should be able to meet and bring a recommendation back to the City Council or Planning Board at which time the public could comment on the structure. The City Attorney stated the Planning Board set up a subcommittee composed of less than a quorum of the Board; the Council is entertaining the establishment of an Ad Hoc Committee, which is slightly different meeting outside a noticed, public hearing would be permissible since the officials involved are still less than a quorum of the legislative body because no action will be taken; the group would have to return to the Planning Board or City Council and report on its findings and recommendations the Planning Board or Council would make a decision on the context of the forum after the public has an opportunity to provide input. Mayor Johnson inquired whether the Council could give direction to notice the meetings, to which the City Attorney responded in the affirmative. Councilmember deHaan stated the public should be able to attend the meetings. Regular Meeting Alameda City Council 11 May 15, 2007 | CityCouncil/2007-05-15.pdf |
