During the August 25, 2025, Council Legislation/Environmental Committee Meeting, proposed changes to Chapter 3.02 were discussed by the Committee and direction was received by staff.
Staff was directed to bring back the policy with draft language to add;

2. Should the Councilmember not make a selection in the time required, the City Clerk will place a staff report on the Council agenda of the qualified applicants for consideration by the full Council under the ranked procedures used for appointments where interviews are required.
Present Situation
In accordance with the Committee direction, staff now presents a proposed redline of Council Policy Manual Chapter 3.02.
Additional changes were made to remove or correct out-of-date language and improve continuity.
Financial Summary
There is no direct financial impact from potential changes.
