Regular City Council Meeting <br /> Monday,July 13, 2015 <br /> Page 28 <br /> could be defined later but should include conduct, topics the commission is work- <br /> ing on, and anything else that will help bring them up-to-speed. <br /> Councilmember Laliberte also supported that addition. Councilmember Laliberte <br /> noted training also involved annual ethics training. Councilmember Laliberte <br /> suggested adding language to include that orientation specific to that commission <br /> as a separate section of broader training for expectations in addition to ethics <br /> training. <br /> Councilmember Willmus responded that in addition to ethics training, the training <br /> referenced by Councilmember Etten would be unique to that individual commis- <br /> sion. Councilmember Willmus noted the need to include meeting a generic orien- <br /> tation for each commission, including protocol and conduct with televised meet- <br /> ings. <br /> Councilmember Etten concurred, noting the intent for it to serve as an orientation <br /> for new commissioners: how to conduct business, the main items being worked <br /> on by the commission, and provided for by the chairperson and staff liaison. <br /> Mayor Roe suggested training for specific commissions included open meeting <br /> laws, data privacy, etc.; and can be broad and cover those issues, but supported <br /> the addition of it as a new item"G"under organization. <br /> Page 2, Section 201.04: Terms <br /> Section B: Councilmember McGehee questioned the need for oaths; with Coun- <br /> cilmember Laliberte responding that it was similar to those taken by the City <br /> Council. <br /> Mayor Roe suggested adding to that section a statement, "... and standards of <br /> conduct(not yet available.)" <br /> City Attorney Gaughan cautioned that requirements could not be created that <br /> didn't yet exist. <br /> Mayor Roe suggested referencing when and if something exists; with Coun- <br /> cilmember Willmus expressing the preference to amend language at that time. <br /> Page 2, Section 201.05: Compensation <br /> Mayor Roe noted there were times when commissioners may purchase supplies <br /> and seek reimbursement, with language stating they would serve without compen- <br /> sation. <br /> City Attorney Gaughan clarified this was reimbursement, not compensation. <br /> Page 2, Section 201.07: Meetings and Reports <br />
