OpenGovernmentCommission | 2021-04-05 | 17 | Chair Tilos stated the next step is to draft the decision. Vice Chair Shabazz stated as a point of order, he is more interested in the restoring part or what happens next; it is also important to address so the same issue does not happen again. Chair Tilos stated the issue can be addressed with a letter to City Council, as Commissioner Chen suggested, on how to make changes to the policy. The Chief Assistant City Attorney stated that she wants to confirm that to the extent that there is going to be any recommendation from the Commission as to any policy change, it will be a request to the Council to make that policy change and should definitely be agendized. *** Chair Tilos called a recess at 9:55 p.m. and reconvened the meeting at 9:59 p.m. *** 3-C. Hearing on Sunshine Ordinance Complaint Filed by Jay Garfinkle on February 25, 2021 Complainant Jay Garfinkle gave a brief presentation. Special Counsel Kristen Rogers gave a brief presentation. The City Clerk stated a motion is needed to consider remaining items. Commissioner LoPilato moved approval of considering the remaining items in order to get a response back to City Council. Commissioner Chen seconded the motion. Under discussion, Vice Chair Shabazz stated it is great that the City wants a response but he does not know whether it should motivate the Commission's agenda, goals and priorities, which is partially why he suggested the Commission collectively agree on its goals and priorities; he does not know if the Commission would be able to have the substantive discussion within the context of the Brown Act. Chair Tilos stated that he is leaning toward that route as well; he would like to give Mr. Garfinkle his time so he will not vote to consider the next item. On the call for the question, the motion failed by the following roll call vote: Commissioners Chen: Aye; LoPilato: Aye; Reid: No; Shabazz: No; Chair No: Aye. Ayes: 2. Noes: 3. *** Meeting of the Open Government Commission April 5, 2021 17 | OpenGovernmentCommission/2021-04-05.pdf |
