Claim #9: Mr. Klausing raises the issue that members can place items on the <br />agenda consecutive times, despite the council having addressed the item <br />previously. <br />Correction #9: It was Mr. Klausing who started this practice in 2002. On a 3-2 <br />vote, he got permission from the council to submit items for the agenda, <br />regardless of how many times they had been previously voted down. <br />Claim ��f�: Mr. Klausing claims that council and staff do not have enough time <br />to examine items under the current process. <br />Correction #"��: Council and staff have no responsibilityto examine items that <br />council members place on the agenda. The responsibility for presenting <br />supporting information on a council initiated agenda item rests fully with the <br />council member. It defies common sense to examine an item which lacks <br />significant support. It defies common sense to spend staff resources on an item <br />which lacks significant support. When the item comes before the council, <br />members can discuss the issue, table it for more information, or permanently <br />table it. <br />._�.- , . �.. . . , . .... . � <br />
