OpenGovernmentCommission | 2020-06-24 | 7 | Commissioner Little accepted the amendment. The City Clerk stated that changing 10 calendar days to 10 business days would put the hearing past the next Council meeting, so a complaint could come in after final passage of an ordinance; she believes the 10 calendar days was intended to ensure there is opportunity between introduction and final passage. Commissioner Little withdrew her last motion and moved approval of her original motion to add Items A through F to the Sunshine Ordinance, and clarify in Items A and B that it is calendar days. Commissioner Shabazz seconded the motion which carried by the following roll call vote: Commissioners Little: Aye; Pauling: Aye; Shabazz: Aye; Tilos: Aye; Chair Schwartz: Abstain. Ayes: 4; Abstentions: 1. Commissioner Shabazz moved approval of substituting the word "chance" in Item C to the word "opportunity.' Chair Schwartz seconded the motion, which carried by the following roll call vote: Commissioners Little: Aye; Pauling: Aye; Shabazz: Aye; Tilos: Aye; Chair Schwartz: Aye. Ayes: 5 Chair Schwartz moved approval of adopting the recommendation on Item G. Commissioner Little seconded the motion. Under discussion, Commissioner Shabazz inquired what significant prejudice means, to which Chair Schwartz responded it is open to interpretation; stated there is a concept of prejudice that the City Attorney included in the supplemental memo regarding the statute of limitations; typically prejudice can be thought of as some right being sacrificed. The Assistant City Attorney stated he does not want to speak for the drafter, but his thought is that the prejudice is an impact of 'harm' to the City. Chair Schwartz concurred with the Assistant City Attorney, stated that is how he reads "significant prejudice" as well. In response to Chair Schwartz' inquiry, Commissioner Shabazz stated that he understands the clarification, but was also wondering how the phrase will be interpreted a year from now. On the call for the question, the motion carried by the following roll call vote: Commissioners Little: Aye; Pauling: Aye; Shabazz: Aye; Tilos: Aye; Chair Schwartz: Aye. Ayes: 5.
