Councilmember Troxell called the meeting to order at 4:06 pm.
Adoption of the minutes from the September 23, 2014 meeting were moved for
approval by Councilmember Cunniff and seconded by Councilmember Troxell.
Minutes were adopted without amendment.
Dan discussed the Governor’s Oil and Gas Task Force activity. He reviewed the
first meeting of the group and comments made by the Colorado Municipal League
(CML) representative. Dan shared a letter that several cities were collectively
drafting to share with the Task Force members seeking to articulate concerns with
current state oil and gas law. LRC recommended that the Mayor sign on the
letter.
LRC reviewed the 2015 Legislative Priorities working draft and provided
feedback. The comments from LRC were minimal – adding captions to some
photos and updating contact information. The document will be finalized for
distribution after the November election to ensure it reflects the proper contacts
for various offices.
The group began discussion of the 2015 Legislative Policy Agenda.
Councilmembers reviewed and made modifications to sections on Culture and
Recreation, Economic Health, and Environmental Health.
The meeting was adjourned at 5:00 pm.
