INITIATINO PROBLEM,ISSUE,OPPORTUNITV(Who,What,When,Where,Why):
The City Council has previously determined that, whenever possible, public
hearings should be held in an appropriate committee in order to avoid
duplicating testimony. This resolution adopts this procedure as a rule.
ADVANTAGES IF APPROVED:
Committees will be able to give matters before them a full hearing and
discussion before making a recommendation. There will be no need to
duplicate testimony or request citizens appear a second time before the
full Council. Appearances in the formal council chambers can be
intimidating for citizens and important information and facts are
sometimes forgotten.
DISADVANTAOES IF APPROVED:
None.
