TO: Mayor and Members of the City Council
VIA: Stefan Chatwin, City Manager
FROM: Kevin Ortiz, Management Analyst
DEPARTMENT: City Manager
SUBJECT: DIRECTING THAT THE LGBTQIA+ PROGRESS PRIDE FLAG BE FLOWN FROM JUNE 1, 2025 THROUGH JUNE 30, 2025 IN
RECOGNITION OF PRIDE MONTH PURSUANT TO THE CITY
HALL FLAG DISPLAY POLICY
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council adopt the attached resolution directing that the LGBTQIA+ Progress Pride Flag be flown in recognition of Pride Month pursuant to the City Hall Flag Display Policy beginning June 1, 2025 and continuing through June 30, 2025.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
On June 3, 2014, the San Mateo County Board of Supervisors unanimously approved a resolution to establish the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer, Intersex, and Asexual (LGBTQIA+) Commission as the State of California’s first county or city commission focused on the needs of the LGBTQIA+ community. The San Mateo County LGBTQIA+ Commission’s mission is cultivating San Mateo County as a welcoming and safe environment where its LGBTQIA+ community members can thrive.
In 2020, the San Mateo County LGBTQIA+ Commission initiated its Pride Month Visibility Campaign and invited all cities and communities in San Mateo County to support the LGBTQIA+ community by recognizing Pride Month (June of each year).
Starting in 2021, all 20 cities in San Mateo County, including the City of Foster City, have continued to issue a Proclamation and raise the Pride Flag in the month of June.
6.4 6.4 Staff Report
34 Due to the success of the countywide campaign and increased participation of cities and communities to achieve the goal of supporting LGBTQIA+ visibility and inclusion, the LGBTQIA+ Pride Month Visibility Campaign continues to be held on an annual basis. To ensure Foster City’s participation in this campaign that seeks to promote diversity and inclusivity throughout the community, it is recommended that the City Council adopt the attached resolution directing that the LGBTQIA+ Progress Pride Flag be flown in recognition of Pride Month pursuant to the City Hall Flag Display Policy.
BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS
On April 24, 2025, the City received a request from the San Mateo County LGBTQIA+ Commission to recognize June 2025 as “LGBTQIA+ Pride Month” (Attachment 2).
Similar to last year, the request for support includes issuance of a Pride Month Proclamation and raising of the LGBTQIA+ Flag during the month of June 2025. For the fourth year, the LGBTQIA+ Commission request specified that the LGBTQIA+ Progress Pride Flag be flown during Pride Month (rather than the traditional Pride Flag).
The traditional Pride Flag (Rainbow Flag) has been part of the LGBTQIA+ movement since 1978, designed by Gilbert Baker at the request of Supervisor Harvey Milk (the first openly gay man to be elected to public office in the United States, specifically on the San Francisco Board of Supervisors). The LGBTQIA+ community and allies use the traditional Pride Flag as an outward symbol of their identity or to support the LGBTQIA+ community.
In 2018, Daniel Quasar, a non-binary artist and graphic designer, created the LGBTQIA+ Progress Pride Flag (Attachment 3) as a variation of the rainbow pride flag.
Specifically, the Progress Pride Flag incorporates additional colors on the flag to expand the representation of the LGBTQIA+ community, including the transgender community as well as LGBTQIA+ communities of color. Raising the Progress Pride Flag would highlight that Foster City is a leader in the fight for equal rights and strives to protect the rights of all Foster City community members, including the LGBTQIA+ community.
The City Council had previously adopted a City Hall Flag Display Policy on June 15, 2020. The policy states the City Council may, by resolution, direct that commemorative flags be flown in addition to flags of the United States of America, California State Flag, and City Flag. The flying of the flags serves as an expression of the City Council’s official sentiments, and the flags may only be flown on the outdoor flagpole at City Hall.
In response to this request, the City Council can determine if it wishes to express its message of support for the LGBTQIA+ community by displaying the LGBTQIA+ Progress Pride Flag in addition to the United States of America Flag, California State Flag, and Foster City Flag in commemoration of the LGBTQIA+ Pride Month beginning June 1, 2025 through June 30, 2025. If approved, as set forth in the policy, the State Flag would be displayed below the United States of America Flag, the Foster City Flag would be moved to where the State Flag otherwise would have flown (left mast), and
6.4 6.4 Staff Report
35 the LGBTQIA+ Progress Pride Flag would be flown where the Foster City Flag otherwise would have flown (right mast).

Subject: 2025 Pride Visibility with Proclamation and Flag Date: Thursday, April 24, 2025 1:44:57 PM
Dear Kevin,
I hope this email finds you well! The LGBTQIA+ Commission is encouraging all cities to issue a Pride Month Proclamation and raise the Progress Pride Flag for the month of June. On that same note, we wanted to learn if Foster City will continue to create more visibility and inclusion for the LGBTQIA+ inhabitants of your community. We request the issuance of a proclamation for Pride Month and raise the Progress Pride flag in June 2025.
On our website are more resources for Pride Month such as “what is the Progress Pride Flag?” and “What is the history of Pride Month?” We also list other organizations in the County who serve the LGBTQIA+ community.
Pride Month Resources | County of San Mateo, CA
We welcome you to let us know when you will issue your Proclamation. We highly encourage you to provide this Proclamation to a Foster City nonprofit or business who is LGBTQ+ friendly. When you have your flag raising scheduled, we would also like to know when that is so we can be available to attend.
Thank you,

FROM: Andrew Brozyna, Public Works Director
DEPARTMENT: Public Works
SUBJECT: ADOPTING A LIST OF PROJECTS FOR FISCAL YEAR 2025- 2026 FUNDED BY SENATE BILL 1: THE ROAD REPAIR AND
ACCOUNTABILITY ACT OF 2017
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council approve the attached resolution adopting one project, Street Rehabilitation (2025-2026) to receive funding from Senate Bill 1: The Road Repair and Accountability Act of 2017 (SB 1).
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Senate Bill 1 (SB 1) helps agencies with supplemental funding to address basic road maintenance, rehabilitation, and critical safety needs of the local street system. The FY 2025-2026 SB 1 funds may be used toward new projects and projects earmarked to receive SB 1 funding in previous years. To satisfy the requirements for receiving SB 1 funding, it is necessary to pass a resolution adopting the projects which will utilize this funding. It is recommended that the City Council adopt a resolution adopting a new CIP project: Street Rehabilitation (2025-2026).
BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS
SB 1 was filed with the Secretary of State on April 28, 2017. This bill established a Road Maintenance and Rehabilitation Account (RMRA) in the State Transportation Fund to be used to address deferred maintenance on the state highway system and the
6.5 6.5 Staff Report
41 local street systems. Annual SB 1 funding amounts are determined by its sources:
increases per gallon in fuel excise taxes, increases in diesel fuel sales taxes and registration fees, and inflationary tax rate adjustments in future years.
SB 1 provides a supplemental funding source to be used to support various road maintenance projects, including street rehabilitation, bridge improvements projects, and traffic signal upgrade projects. The City’s streets and roads network is rated with a Pavement Condition Index of 78, “Good” condition. SB1 revenue will assist the City with funding to maintain its roadways in “Good” condition, one of the highest-ranking levels in San Mateo County, with the goal over the next decade to bring our street and roads into a “very good” condition.
Foster City has received SB 1 funding in previous years based on fuel sales tax and registration fees revenues. Foster City’s FY 2025-2026 revenues are estimated to be $883,812. (Attachment 2 – Projected Revenues)
Staff recommends the inclusion of one new project for utilization of SB 1 funding for FY 2025-2026:
Street Rehabilitation (2025-2026)
This project is intended to repair/resurface public streets on Foster City Boulevard South of East Hillsdale Boulevard, and Altair Avenue, including pavement grinding, base repair, asphalt overlay, slurry seal, thermoplastic pavement striping and pavement markings, signage improvements, accessibility upgrades to ramps, curb and gutter repair, sidewalk repair and adjusting utility covers to grade. The City uses a Pavement Management System to select the streets to include in subsequent roadway repair projects to ensure funding is being used on the most high-priority projects. The program also helps to determine the most cost-effective treatment to extend the life of the roadways.
Approving the attached resolution will satisfy SB 1 requirements, ensuring compliance with the following Streets and Highways Code:
2034.
(a) (1) Prior to receiving an apportionment of funds under the program pursuant to paragraph (2) of subdivision (h) of Section 2032 from the Controller in a fiscal year, an eligible city or county shall submit to the commission a list of projects proposed to be funded with these funds. All projects proposed to receive funding shall be adopted by resolution by the applicable city council or county board of supervisors at a regular public meeting.

TO: Mayor and Members of the City Council
President and Members of the Estero Municipal Improvement District (EMID) Board of Directors
VIA: Stefan Chatwin, City/District Manager
Marlene Subhashini, Assistant City/District Manager
FROM: Andrew Brozyna, Public Works Director
DEPARTMENT: Public Works
SUBJECT: DESIGNATING THE CITY/DISTRICT MANAGER AND THE
PUBLIC WORKS DIRECTOR AS AUTHORIZED AGENTS ON
BEHALF OF THE CITY OF FOSTER CITY/ESTERO MUNICIPAL
IMPROVEMENT DISTRICT TO ENGAGE WITH THE FEDERAL
EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT AGENCY (FEMA) AND THE
CALIFORNIA GOVERNER’S OFFICE OF EMERGENCY
SERVICES (CALOES) REGARDING GRANTS APPLIED FOR BY
THE CITY OF FOSTER CITY/ESTERO MUNICIPAL
IMPROVEMENT DISTRICT
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council/EMID Board adopt the attached resolution designating the City/District Manager and the Public Works Director as authorized agents on behalf of the City of Foster City/Estero Municipal Improvement District for the purpose of obtaining federal financial assistance for any existing or future grant program as specified in the attached California Governor's Office of Emergency Services (CalOES) Designation of Applicant’s Agent Resolution for Non-State Agencies Form (Form 130).
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
CalOES sub-grants the FEMA Legislative Pre-Disaster Mitigation (LPDM) grant program to local jurisdictions throughout the State. The LPDM program provides

funding to plan and direct hazard mitigation projects before a disaster. Funding these plans and projects reduces overall risk to the population and structures and funded projects also reduce the need for federal funding in actual disasters. CalOES requires a Designation of Applicant’s Agent Resolution for Non-State Agencies to be on file for the purpose of obtaining federal financial assistance.
BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS
The City of Foster City has been awarded an LPDM in the amount of $1,344,343.07 in support of the Lagoon Pump Station Seismic Rehabilitation and Capacity Enhancement project. This project adds a third and fourth lagoon pump and related infrastructure, and provides for lagoon pump station building rehabilitation (Currently CIP 301-717 and CIP 301-718). The project will provide long-term, permanent risk reduction by enhancing the Lagoon Pump Station’s capacity. This enhancement will improve flood protection and safeguard critical infrastructure against earthquake damage, ensuring the pump station remains operational.
CalOES requires a Designation of Applicant’s Agent Resolution for Non-State Agencies to be on file for the purpose of obtaining federal financial assistance. The attached Form 130 and resolution designate the City Manager and Public Works Director as authorized agents on behalf of the City of Foster City.
Further, in the event that EMID applies for funding in the future, it is recommended that a completed Designation of Applicant’s Agent Resolution for Non-State Agencies is on file with CalOES. The attached Form 130 and resolution designate the District Manager and Public Works Director as authorized agents on behalf of the Estero Municipal Improvement District.
Once authorized, the forms will remain active on file with CalOES for a period of three years.
CEQA
Not Applicable
FISCAL IMPACT
There is no fiscal impact associated with approving the proposed resolutions.
Previously appropriated funds will be expended on eligible project costs, then reimbursed by the LPDM grant. The designation approved by the resolutions is required to be on file for the City to be eligible to apply for reimbursement for the Lagoon Pump Station Seismic Rehabilitation and Capacity Enhancement project in the amount of $1,344,343.07. If EMID applies and is awarded funding in the future, the designation is required to be on file for EMID to be eligible to apply for reimbursement.

77 Cal OES Form 130 Instructions
A Designation of Applicant’s Agent Resolution for Non-State Agencies is required of all Applicants to be eligible to receive funding. A new resolution must be submitted if a previously submitted resolution is older than three (3) years from the last date of approval, is invalid, or has not been submitted.
When completing the Cal OES F
orm 130, Applicants should fill in the blanks on pages 1 and 2. The blanks are to be filled in as follows:
Resolution Section:
Governing Body: This is the group resp
onsible for appointing and approving the
Authorized Agents.
Examples include: Board of Directors, City Council, Board of Supervisors, Board of Education, etc.
Name of Applicant: The public entity establis
hed under the laws of the
State of California.
Examples include: School District, Office of Education, City, County or Non-profit agency that has applied for the grant, such as: City of San Diego, Sacramento County, Burbank Unified School District, Napa County Office of Education, University Southern California.
Authorized Agent: These are the individuals th
at are authorized by the Governing Body
to engage with the Federal Emergency Management Agency and the California Governor’s Office of Emergency Services regarding grants for which they have applied.
There are two ways of completing this section:
1. Titles Only: The titles of the Authorized Agents should be entered here, not their names. This allows the document to remain valid if an Authorized Agent leaves the position and is replaced by another individual. If “Titles Only” is the chosen method, this document must be accompanied by either a cover letter naming the Authorized Agents by name and title, or the Cal OES AA Names document. The supporting document can be completed by any authorized person within the Agency (e.g., administrative assistant, the Authorized Agent, secretary to the Director). It d
oes not require the Governing Body’s signature.
2. Names and Titles: If the Governing Body so chooses, the names and titles of the Authorized Agents would be listed. A new Cal OES Form 130 will be required if any of the Authorized Agents are replaced, leave the position listed on the document, or their title changes.

6.6 Attachment 3 - Form 130 - City .pdf
78 Checking Universal or Disaster-Specific Box: A Universal resolution is effective for all past disasters and for those declared up to three (3) years following the date of approval. Upon expiration it is no longer effective for new disasters, but it remains in effect for disasters declared prior to expiration. It remains effective until the disaster goes through closeout unless it is superseded by a newer resolution.
Governing Body Representative: These are the names and titles of the approving Board Members.
Examples include: Chairman of the Board, Director, Superintendent, etc. The names and titles cannot be one of the designated Authorized Agents. A minimum of three (3) approving board members must be listed. If less than three are present, meeting minutes must be attached in order to verify a quorum was met.
Certification Section:
Name and Title: This is the individual in attendance who recorded the creation and approval of this resolution.
Examples include: City Clerk, Secretary to the Board of Directors, County Clerk, etc. This person cannot be one of the designated Authorized Agents or Approving Board Member. If a person holds two positions (such as City Manager and Secretary to the Board) and the City Manager is to be listed as an Authorized Agent, then that person could sign the document as Secretary to the Board (not City Manager) to eliminate “Self-Certification.”

TO: Mayor and Members of the City Council President and Members of the Estero Municipal Improvement District (EMID) Board of Directors
VIA: Stefan Chatwin, City/District Manager
FROM: Diane Pitman, Administrative Services Director
DEPARTMENT: Administrative Services
SUBJECT: UPDATES TO THE MANAGEMENT GROUP COMPENSATION
AND BENEFITS PLAN EFFECTIVE MAY 1, 2025
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council/EMID Board of Directors (hereinafter referred to as “City Council”) adopt the attached resolutions approving a new Compensation and Benefits Plan, effective May 1, 2025, for the unrepresented Management employees.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The City Council requested staff to review and update the current Compensation and Benefits Plan (CBP) for the unrepresented Management Employees based on the recent approval of a new Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees (AFSCME). The CBP was compared to the MOU’s for AFSCME and the Police Officer’s Association (POA). Staff has updated the Management Group CBP to align compensation and benefits to the negotiated AFSCME and POA MOU’s.
BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS
The Management Employee group is made up of 49 unrepresented employees of various positions including department heads, mid-management, and other professional classifications. The current CBP for the Management employees was approved on
6.7 6.7 Staff Report
84 June 20, 2023. The new CBP is recommended for City Council approval with a retroactive effective date of May 1, 2025. The retroactive date will allow the Management Employees to participate in a new pilot salary continuation program recently negotiated with AFSCME.
Attached is an updated CBP which includes the following revisions:
Wages:
•Effective July 1, 2026, an across-the-board increase based on the April-to-April CPI movement for the Bay Area with a minimum of 3% and a maximum of 5%. •Effective July 1, 2027, an across-the-board increase based on the April-to-April CPI movement for the Bay Area with a minimum of 3% and a maximum of 5%. •Effective July 1, 2028, an across-the-board increase based on the April-to-April CPI movement for the Bay Area with a minimum of 3% and a maximum of 5%.
Flexible Benefit Plan (Medical, Dental, Vision): Effective January 1, 2026, the City’s contribution towards the Flexible Benefit Plan will be increased by the percentage increase in the CalPERS Kaiser HMO Basic Premium Region 1 rate for Public Agencies. The CBP also states that the City’s contribution will be adjusted January 1, 2027, January 1, 2028, and January 1, 2029, using the same Kaiser plan increase.
Additional holiday: Juneteenth will be an observed holiday starting June 19, 2025.
Police management will have an adjustment to their holiday-in-lieu pay of 0.38% for a total of 5.78%. In addition, Police Captains will be added to the holiday-in-lieu section and work on holidays like other holiday-in-lieu staff.
Pilot Salary Continuation Program: Management Employees will be eligible to participate in the Foster City CARE leave two-year pilot program to provide salary continuation for employees with qualifying FMLA/CFRA leaves.
Sick Leave Accrual: Sick leave accrual will be increased to 8.666 per month starting July 1, 2025, to align with the AFSCME MOU.
Uniform Allowance: Effective July 1, 2025, the uniform allowance for Police Management will be increased from $722 to $900 a year to align with the POA contract.
Boot Allowance: Effective July 1, 2025 specific classifications that have a requirement to wear safety-toed footwear will receive a $300 boot allowance every other fiscal year or every three years. This is similar, but not as frequent, as the AFSMCE MOU.
Class B Driver’s License Incentive: Specific classifications that possess and maintain a commercial class B or higher driver’s license will be eligible for a $200 a year certification pay in alignment with the AFSCME MOU.
Service Recognition Leave: Management employees currently receive 40 hours of paid leave when they reach 10, 20 and 30 years of service. Effective May 1, 2025, this
6.7 6.7 Staff Report
85 recognition will be revised to include years 15 and 25 to be similar to the AFSCME MOU.
Certification Pay: Effective July 1, 2025, specific classifications that have a unique certification that provides valued job and safety knowledge will be eligible for certification pay similar to the AFSCME MOU.
The above revisions will help with recruitment and retention of employees and supports the City Council’s goal of aligning benefits where appropriate between management employees and the negotiated AFSCME and POA MOU’s.

Not Applicable
FISCAL IMPACT
The provisions proposed in the revised CBP that impact 2024-2025 can be absorbed in the current FY 2024-2025 budget. The cost-of-living adjustments for FY 2025-2026 were previously authorized and the appropriate adjustments will be made in the upcoming FY 2025-2026 budget accordingly. The impact of future wage adjustments will be reflected in the budgets of their respective fiscal years. No supplemental appropriation is needed at this time.

Employees, whether new to the City/District or to the Management Group, who become eligible to participate in the VEBA Trust after July 1, 2012, will have fifteen (15) calendar days from the date of eligibility to elect whether they would like to “opt-in” or “opt-out” of the VEBA Trust. If a newly eligible Employee elects to “opt- in,” payroll deductions will begin in accordance with the Employee contribution amounts in this Plan. If a newly eligible Employee fails to make an election within fifteen (15) days from the date of plan eligibility, it will be deemed that the newly eligible Employee has elected to “opt-out.”
Participant Account
A separate account is maintained for each contributing eligible Employee which documents the Employee’s contributions and disbursements.

Eligible benefits subject to reimbursement by the VEBA Trust shall be limited to long-term care expenses and non-reimbursed medical premiums, co-payments, prescribed drug expenses and other medical care costs as defined by internal Revenue Code Section 213.
An eligible Employee’s VEBA account is subject to a monthly administrative fee for expenses related to recordkeeping, claims processing and claims reimbursement. The fee will be deducted from the eligible Employee’s individual account.
If the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) concludes that the VEBA Trust does not qualify under the requirements of the Tax Code or no longer qualifies after initial

The City/District contributed the “side car” funds directly into the Employees’ VEBA account, and the “side car” program no longer exists.
12.2 All Management Employees may participate in a voluntary 401(a) plan. Only Miscellaneous (non-Public Safety) Management Employees who elect to participate and who contribute a minimum of 1% of salary shall receive a City/District contribution to their account of 4% of salary.

2024 Audit Committee accomplishments
My name is Falgoon Desai, a member of the Foster City Audit Committee. I have been asked to prepare and present a report on the Audit Committee’s accomplishments in the calendar year 2024. The other members of the Audit Committee are Bob Buyers, Audie Chang, Vijay Dodd and Rajani Thiagarajan. Please note that with the resignation of prior Committee Chair, Michael Barry, in March 2024, the position was vacant for the entire calendar year. Ms. Thiagarajan was appointed as a new member in January 2025 for a partial term ending December 2025.
Audit Plan Discussion
The Committee began the first regular meeting of the year in April by discussing the audit plan submitted by Badawi & Associates for the fiscal year ending June 2024. This included a review of the scope and objectives of the audit, background of auditors assigned to the audit, as well as the identification of high-risk areas that would require special attention.
Review of Completed Audit
In November 2024, the Committee reviewed the draft audit report and financial statements presented by the Independent Auditors. The report included findings on the City's operating results, financial position, compliance with applicable laws and regulations, and the effectiveness of internal controls. The Committee noted Foster City received a clean audit opinion with no significant findings or material weaknesses and recommended the audit report and financial statements be approved by the City Council. The Committee and Independent Auditors commended the City’s finance team for their diligent work and effective management of the City's financial resources.

SUBJECT: CONSIDERATION OF A CODE OF CONDUCT
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council/EMID Board of Directors1 adopt the attached resolutions adopting a Code of Conduct for Foster City Elected and Appointed Officials.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
On January 21, 2025, Mayor Jimenez requested a future agenda item to reintroduce a Code of Conduct for the City Council. The Mayor referenced the San Mateo County Board of Supervisors recent adoption of a new code of conduct. This request was supported by a majority of the Council. The City Council met at a Study Session on March 10, 2025, and provided direction to staff on a draft Code of Conduct. The draft is before the City Council tonight for approval. (Attachment 1)
BACKGROUND
On October 5, 2020, the City Council appointed an Ad Hoc Subcommittee comprised of former Mayor Mahanpour, Council Member Froomin, and Planning Commissioner Wykoff to draft a recommended Code of Conduct and bring it to the City Council for action. The Subcommittee created a recommended Code of Conduct for Foster City Elected and Appointed Officials that was then adopted by the City Council. 1 Hereafter, any reference to the City Council includes the EMID Board of Directors.

4 The 2020 Council Code of Conduct set forth guidelines relating to the conduct of appointed and elected officials in a number of areas including meeting decorum, conduct toward the public, conduct toward staff, City Council conduct with appointed boards, committees and commissions, and representations to the public. It also provided procedures relating to setting agendas for City Council meetings as well as the selection of Council Subcommittees. The Code of Conduct also provided a process for the reporting and investigation of complaints, which allowed any member of the public, including members of commissions or committees, the City Manager and the City Attorney to report violations of the Code of Conduct to the Mayor or Vice Mayor (if the complaint involved the Mayor).
On December 13, 2021, the City Council discussed amending, suspending or rescinding the Code of Conduct. After a robust discussion, the City Council voted 3-2 to rescind the Code of Conduct.
On January 21, 2025, Mayor Jimenez requested a future agenda item to reintroduce a Code of Conduct. This request was supported by a majority of the City Council. The City Council met at a Study Session on March 10, 2025, and provided direction to staff on a draft Code of Conduct.
ANALYSIS
At the recent Study Session, the City Council reviewed in detail the previous 2020 Code of Conduct and provided direction to staff to make certain edits. (Attachment 2, copy of the minutes.) The City Council discussed separating out issues that should be contained in a future handbook, and focus on Code of Conduct to address appropriate behavior for elected and appointed officials. Many of the proposed edits to the 2020 Code of Conduct attempt to streamline the document along these lines. Additionally, the City Council wanted to clarify language surrounding when it was appropriate for elected and appointed officials to attend internal staff meetings.
Edits were also proposed by the City Council relating to enforcement of the Code of Conduct. The City Council provided direction that any enforcement should be self- enforcing, and that any alleged violations be brought to the attention of the City Council.
Upon receipt of any complaint, the City Council may take any action that it deems necessary and lawful in responding to a complaint. Finally, the City Council directed that the Code of Conduct have a list of helpful resources directing elected and appointed officials to State and Municipal Code requirements pertaining to ethics and open government.
There is no requirement that a governing body adopt a Code of Conduct. The City Council is already obligated to comply with a number of State and Municipal Code requirements that promote transparency, openness, and fairness in government and decorum. However, the City Council has the authority to enact further governing documents to address the topics contained in the draft Code of Conduct before the City Council.
