members in interpreting and applying local and state ethical rules; and
WHEREAS, the Review Board consists of three Councilmembers appointed by the City
Council, and one alternate member who is appointed to serve in the event that a regular member of
the Review Board is unavailable; and

Kottwitz, Ben Manvel and Lisa Poppaw to serve as regular members of the Review Board and also
appointed Mayor Karen Weitkunat to serve as the alternate; and
WHEREAS, Mayor Weitkunat and Councilmember Manvel have both submitted inquiries
to the Review Board as to whether they may have conflicts of interest in participating in decisions
of the City Council relating to a development proposal that may be submitted to the City by
Woodward, Inc., in the near future; and
WHEREAS, Councilmember Kottwitz is temporarily unavailable to attend meetings of the
Review Board, thus leaving only Councilmember Poppaw available to address the inquiries

Councilmembers to serve on the Review Board with Councilmember Poppaw for the purpose of
rendering an advisory opinion and recommendation with regard to the inquiries submitted by Mayor
