It was agreed that the sub-committee meet before the November meeting. City Manager Trudgeon asked the whole Commission if there were any topics or speakers that they would like to see. Discussion amongst the Commission indicated that having the City Attorney come back to speak more specifically about areas of the Ethics Code would be beneficial. The Commission agreed to have the sub-committee work on focusing the training down to some specific issues.
