action until their March meeting.
Chair Edwards reported he had received a memorandum from City Manager Atteberry
and City Attorney Roy relative to a resolution that would be coming before City Council
on February 19'". The proposal is whereas members are subject to various legal and
ethical requirements established by federal, state and local law that govern the way in
which they perform their duties, City Council believes that such training sessions should
be made mandatory for all current board and commission members who have not
previously attended the training program offered by City staff. The proposal asks that by
July 1, 2008 members who have not previously attending the training program complete
Ik
the requirement either by attending a session or checking out a training video. (NOTE:
The resolution was approved by City Council on February 19"'.)
All CRB members who had not already attended training are planning to complete
training by the recommended July 1, 2008 deadline.
