Description
1.30.2023 Governance Committee
A
Where's
the
chorus
we're
getting
started.
Okay,
welcome
to
the
governance
committee
meeting.
B
I'd
like
to
call
this
meeting
to
order
we'll
start
with
a
roll
call.
B
If
you
are
watching
this
from
home,
the
minutes
are
also
available
on
the
website.
C
B
So
yes,
this
was
quite
a
long
meeting.
We,
we
were
very
fortunate
to
have
several
former
mayors
join.
B
Us-
and
I
still
thank
them
again
for
doing
so
so
with
that,
can
I
get
a
vote
to
approve
all
in
favor.
D
Really
good
actually
to
have
it
and
they're
very
helpful.
Sometimes
you
know.
B
We
are
going
to
go
ahead
and
move
on
to
old
business
we
had
discussed.
I
should
say
that.
B
Discussion
instead,
we
moved
up
the
discussion
around
draft
language
on
a
donations
policy.
B
And
I'm
going
to
share
that
document
with
us.
I
want
to
preface
our
discussion
to
say.
B
B
And
it
starts
out
by
just
explaining
the
objective
for
writing.
The
donations
policy.
E
E
E
B
B
With
a
deputy
city
manager,
deputy
city
attorney,
I
asked
for
assistance
in
drafting
language.
B
C
Yeah,
I
I
think
we've
done
a
good
job
in
this
draft
of.
E
B
E
E
E
E
E
E
So
that
was
my
my
thought
we'll
see,
I
think
we'll
get
there
and
I
will
ask
our
library.
B
F
Walk
through,
but
this
is
great
so
you'll
see
generally
the
scope.
B
B
Volunteerism,
that's
an
important
exclusion
is
kind
of
a
donation
in
kind
of
time.
E
D
Chapter
one
yep:
what
is
chapter
where,
where
is
that?
So
that
is
the
section.
D
E
E
E
E
E
Worth
more
than
100
bucks
in
the
chapter
one
there,
but
there
might
be
other
types
of.
B
D
So
let's
say
there's
a
position
that
someone
says.
I
really
think
this
position
is
important.
B
Because
then
you
might
lose
the
donor
if
you
don't
retain
the
person.
So
that's
the
that's
where.
B
B
E
E
B
Just
the
council
that
really
doesn't
so
so
this
this
basically
endorses.
B
That
procedure,
what
about
you
know
the
one
that
you
always
hear
about
is.
C
Fenway
park
and
somebody
buys
them
tickets,
so
transportation
is
provided
for
a.
E
The
chapter
one
section:
eight,
which
is
100
bucks.
So
if
that
the
value
of
that
ticket
or.
E
C
Donations
for
assets
or
programs
of
the
city
correct
now,
if
you
want
to
you
know,
we
could
talk.
E
B
B
B
B
So,
in
that
sense,
there's
not
a
lot
of
difference
from
them
in
the
school
board.
D
B
B
C
E
E
Needs
to
get
broken
up
and
restructured
a
little
bit
differently,
but
a
lot
of
communities.
E
Little
fanfares
or
something
you
know
there
are
things
to
do
that.
We,
you
know
when
we
have
more.
E
Piece
a
lot
will
yeah,
so
it
really
is
kind
of
up
to
you.
I
do
think
it's
an
interesting
idea
for.
E
E
E
Will
just
distribute
within
the
department
you
know
it
just
goes
through
their
processes.
E
E
So
that's
an
option.
You
know
do
that
and
see
how
it
goes.
D
D
And
then
the
only
the
only
problem
becomes
then,
and
I-
and
this
is
a
thing
I
know
the.
D
I
mean,
I
think
we
all
are
interested
in
that,
but
I
know
he's
adamant.
We
could
probably.
B
We
could
also
publish
it
in
the
newsletter
potentially
quarterly,
maybe
in
the
newsletter.
B
And
the
other
way
that
we
could
do
this
is
we
could
attach
to
the
council
packet.
You
know.
B
Not
necessarily
identifying
all
the
donations
that
come
into
police
and
fire,
you
know
they
have.
B
It
you
don't
want
any
undue
influence
for
donations
coming
in.
So
if
they're,
they.
B
B
Especially
in
avoiding
those
conflicts,
yeah
yeah
for
them
and
as
you'll
recall
from
our
past.
E
To
maintain
that
sense
of
you
know
we're
all
treated
equally,
which
is
you
know,
particularly.
E
That
they,
they
were
cognizant,
rightly
of
that,
and
that's
why
the
commission
would
often
hear.
E
You
know
anonymity
and
and
try
and
be
cognizant
of
no
preference.
I
think
there's.
B
B
So
while
you
can
recognize
the
individual
for
the
overall
donation,
you
don't
have
to
say.
B
Who
it
went
to
in
the
city
so
that
there
is
no
perception
of
of
favors
and
code
enforcement?.
B
With
wanting
to
try
to,
I
mean
the
library's
in
a
unique
position
that
I
think
you
generally.
B
B
Conflict
ever
I'll,
give
you
a
couple
examples.
Now
I
haven't
in
my
tenure
not
only
as
director.
F
F
F
F
F
F
F
F
F
F
F
F
E
B
I
don't
know,
I
don't
know
if
it's,
this
is
the
right
spot.
Let
me
ask
before
you
leave
accepting.
B
C
You
know
so
I'm
inclined
to
keep
it
low.
C
B
Council
lombardi
do
do
you
have
any
thoughts
on
that
is
said.
No,
I
would
agree
with.
F
Say
listing
whether
quarterly
or
in
a
regular
time
period,
do
you
mean
with
names
or
anonymous
a.
B
Wants
it
recognized
and
we
would
always
prefer
to
recognize
individuals.
I
think
so
that
we.
B
E
F
F
F
F
D
D
E
B
Policies
and
that's
why
we've
looked
at
their
policies
as
well,
so
I
think
it
might
be.
E
A
little
bit
clearer
great
now
we're
at
four,
which
is
good
general
conditions.
B
The
no
advantage
is
to
occur
to
the
donor.
I
think
that
that's
that's.
B
No
expectation
even
of
recognition,
but
then
then
council
isn't
in
a
situation
that.
B
B
B
B
Just
recognizing
that,
but
you
notice
it
doesn't
say,
what's
nice
there
is
that
this
is
what
they're.
E
And
I
just
some
municipal
policies
had
a
section
on
ineligible
donors,
some
didn't
so.
E
E
And
then,
like
I
said,
I
haven't
solicited
much
opinion.
I
just
did
a
quick
survey
of.
E
You
know
some
that
I
could
find
out
there,
but
that
may
create
more.
B
B
So
the
question
you
know
becomes,
how
do
you.
B
F
B
To
safety
apparatus
so
but
again
you
know
those
so
that
was
a
decision
of
the
department.
B
Mindful
that
that
we
have
some
entities
in
our
community
that
are
strong
businesses,
that.
B
Of
policy
we
have
there
and
if,
if
there's
a
conflict
of
interest
and
who
defines
that.
E
E
F
F
B
E
So
you've
got
those
pieces
yeah,
so
it's
very
interesting,
but
I
I
think
it's
interesting.
E
E
B
C
That
it
be
spent
expeditiously,
I'm
thinking
of
a
donor
who
you
know
says
I
want
to
give
this
to.
E
That's
it,
but
I
was
trying
to
think
of
a
similar
example
where
we
take
stuff.
That's.
E
Not
in
a
trust,
I
have
some
examples,
so
some
of
our
donations
that
were
given
not
only
way.
F
In
the
principle
can
never
be
touched,
we
also
have
things
like
currently
some
matching
funds.
F
F
C
C
C
C
Explanation
back
to
the
donors,
or
do
we
just
count
on
the
fact
that
it
it's
a
public
process.
E
I
think
it's
a
call
to
the
city
manager
that
says:
hey.
You
know
made
this
donation
this.
E
E
I
think
if
you
try
and
put
strictures
on
it,
yeah
you're
gonna
find
it.
Those
strictures
are.
E
E
E
Would
that
be
yeah
and
then,
if
something's
been
languishing,
it
can
move
off
the
plate.
B
B
B
Developed
within
the
next
year
or
two
years
or
to
an
item.
But
then
there
isn't
a
lot
of
appetite.
B
B
B
B
That
there
should
be
check
in
to
see
if,
if
the
donor
wants
the
money's
still
sitting
there
or
not,.
D
D
D
D
Excited
about
yeah,
the
greening
yeah,
and
but
we
don't
want
to
see
the
browning.
You
know.
C
E
E
E
D
E
D
A
time
frame
you
know,
because
I
think,
of
what
councilor
tamers.
E
B
Politics
change
projects
no
longer
intriguing
to
the
next
council
priorities
change,
so
it.
B
B
Big
donation,
so
it
I'm
thinking
that
that's
a
priority
donation
for
a
check
back.
I
think.
E
Whether
it
did
come
in
for
a
special
purpose,
there
are
laws
that
are
applicable
when.
E
E
E
B
Okay,
then,
costs
associated
with
post
proposed
donation.
E
E
G
The
donation
is
what
it
is
for:
public
art,
yep
so,
and
a
thousand
dollar.
A
But
but
you
know
the
question
then
becomes
you
know?
I
guess
you
know
what
are.
B
E
Would
probably
not
have
a
thousand
dollars
an
annual,
but
if
somebody
wanted
to
donate
a.
G
Who
received
they
received
a
donation
of
a
house?
There
was
in
trust
and
had
all
kinds
of.
B
Took
five
years
to
go
through
the
process
of
of
setting
up
all
the
provisions
to
sell
it.
B
So
so
we're
saying
that
the
the
gsa
should
supply
the
ongoing
maintenance.
B
Yeah
this
is,
I
think,
it's
reasonable.
It's
it's
fairly
reasonable
because
it
leaves
it
to.
B
E
Generating
than
balances
it
out
or
something
yeah
very
reasonable
procedure,
approvals
in
general.
A
E
B
And
or
a
procurement,
yep
donations
of
personal
or.
F
Libraries,
because
of
book
sales-
and
we
do
not
have
a
book
sale.
So
we
also
we've
also
looked.
F
F
F
F
F
F
B
F
F
D
We
had
our
first
meeting
of
the
archive
committee
and
you
know
obviously
we're
talking
about.
D
There's
people
with
a
lot
of
that
too.
So
maybe
that's
the
next
council's
job,
but.
B
Managing
and
reporting
donations.
This
is
this
is
an
important
piece
around
reporting.
D
B
B
B
From
the
community,
in
response
who
requests
and
complaints
and
questions.
E
That
you
will
see
when
you
donate
to
any
one
of
our
many
wonderful
charitable
organizations.
E
E
E
Practice
and
most
donations
are
under
100.,
but
I
know
when
we
were
taking
them.
I
think.
E
E
E
The
gift
very
good:
okay,
that's
good
accounts.
E
E
C
B
Okay
and
that's
it
nope
any
general
questions
that
we
want
to
ask
before
we
flew
forward.
C
That
they're,
not
hidden
behind
any
kind
of
shell
organization,.
E
E
E
E
The
face
of
the
organization
if
there
are
concerns
that
it
might
not.
E
Be
I'm
just
thinking,
you
know,
ineligible
donor.
If
we
got
a
city
at
the
city
council
level,
we
get.
C
F
F
From
one
of
those
ineligible
entities,
what
would
happen
right
right?
I
think
on
my
list
here
is.
E
E
A
conflict
analysis
is
there
a
reason
why
this
donation
is
coming
in,
but
that's
my
my.
E
What
would
be
triggering
triggering
it
the,
but
the
city
council,
you
know,
could
always
say:
look.
E
E
C
C
That
truly
helps
the
city
with
no
strings
attached
and
is
ethical
and
above
board
and
transparent.
B
B
I'm
gonna
stop
sharing
this
17th.
I
believe.
D
One,
the
parts
one
is
february:
the
13th.
We
don't
have
okay
february
27th,
a
second.
B
B
B
It's
unfortunate
yeah
when
it's
connected
what
thanks
and
give
them.
I
have
it
for.
B
B
B
B
The
meetings
again-
and
I
wanted
to
take
just
a
moment
to
say
thank
you
so
much
for
coming
in.
B
And,
and
in
that
sense
we
really
appreciate
the
advice.
Well,
thank
you
for
listening
to.
B
You
try,
we
try.
Yes,
so
I'm
gonna
go
back
to
the
agenda
so
that
everybody
can
see
where.
B
We
are
again.
The
next
item
is
upcoming
park
season.
Discussion
is
the
13th.
It
is
february
27th
that.
B
And
under
new
business
we
will
get
to
hear
from
counselor
tabor.
On
this
we
had
a
a
question.
B
And
I
wanted
to
get
the
thoughts
of
this
group
if
we
want
to
take
that
up.
If
we
want
to
take
up.
B
Changes
to
that
or
not
so
start
with
counselor
tabor,
since
he
sits
on
the
fee
study
committee.
C
So
it's
kind
of
like
paddling,
a
robot
with
one
or
you
just
go
around
in
a
circle
and.
C
I
think
it's
a
discussion
worth
having
the
purpose
of
the
fee
committee
is
to
have.
C
C
More
than
offsetting
the
costs
correct,
so
that's
the
reason
for
the
review
of
all
the
fees.
C
C
G
E
Evolved
over
time,
so
I
was
just
double
checking.
That's
a
good
point,
so
I
think
that
could
be.
E
Something
that
could
be
worked
on,
okay,
that
it
may
be
a
slightly
different
effort,
which
is
to.
E
Create
more
formally,
the
committee
structure,
in
which
case
one
could
have
three
not
two.
E
E
B
B
Record
like
a
a
request
and
a
vote
of
the
council,
so
so
it
would
probably
be
council
established.
B
The
way
that
it's
it's
set
up,
if
we
want
to
set
up
a
more
permanent
method
for
it,
we
can.
We.
B
B
E
E
Maybe
for
the
next
meeting
you
know
I
can
solicit
susan
and
bob's
input
on
this
and
the.
E
E
E
Back
some
options
for
the
next
meeting,
I
think
the
impetus
I
think
came
from
the
city
manager.
