CityCouncil | 2018-06-19 | 14 | gathering information as soon as practical; in preparation of the staff report which will accompany the City Council action related to the referral, there should be a timeline that includes the decision points and who makes the decision. The Acting City Manager stated the City Attorney's office provided a lot of information and did a lot of research; more research is being requested and staff just wants to make sure the Council is okay with staff spending the additional time to provide the information. The City Attorney stated staff worked with Community Development to put together what would happen going forward; staff is now being asked to research historic information about the parcel which the City does not have; the parcel separation was done by the federal government; staff will do its best to gather and provide the information. Mayor Spencer clarified that she wrote the referral before knowing the City Attorney's office did any research; the historic information she is requesting dates back to 2008. (18-377) Mayor Spencer stated a motion is needed to consider remaining items. Councilmember Matarrese moved approval. Councilmember Ezzy Ashcraft seconded the motion, which carried by unanimous voice vote - 5. In response to Vice Mayor Vella's inquiry, Councilmember Matarrese stated the information he is looking for is what steps have to happen when a G-overlay comes before Council; the information is not for the Council, but for the public so they know and understand what is happening; he does not see the need to go back for further research except in the staff report, which will be published before action is taken. The City Attorney stated staff has already provided the timeline Councilmember Matarrese described. Councilmember Oddie stated the matter will probably come up in December; the City Attorney's office could decide what to do knowing the question will be asked. The Acting City Manager stated the matter is not on the work plan for December. The City Attorney stated that she hears Councilmember Oddie and does not ignore Council requests. Mayor Spencer stated her referral goes to wanting to know the history of the ownership of the property dating back to 2008 when the people voted on Measure WW; it is important to request the information from the other agencies even if there is no response; inquired whether her referral is included in the motion.
