MOTION TO APPROVE. MOTION BY COUNCILMAN KRAMER. SECOND. SECOND BY COUNCILWOMAN MCCRANEY. THE RESOLUTION IS BEFORE US. IS THERE ANY DISCUSSION? I'M GOING TO TURN THE FLOOR OVER TO MADAM CLERK. TO YOU TO SPEAK TO THIS.YES. SO FOR THE LAST FEW YEARS, THERE'S BEEN CHANGES TO THE TO THE STATUTE REGARDING OPEN RECORDS. SO WE HAVE UPDATED OUR POLICIES AND PROCEDURES TO REFLECT THAT. THEN ALSO TODAY WE WOULD LIKE TO AMEND THOSE POLICIES AND PROCEDURES. THERE'S A FEW THINGS ON PAGE FOUR UNDER EXCEPTIONS TO RIGHT OF INSPECTION, WE SIMPLY JUST CHANGED. WE HAD KIND OF PARAPHRASED IT. WE CHANGED IT TO QUOTING THE STATUTE DIRECTLY. ON PAGE FIVE, UNDER THE SAME SECTION, THERE ARE SOME EXEMPTIONS THAT ARE LISTED. AND THERE'S A ONE IN THE INSTEAD OF USING THE WORD AND WHICH WE WANT TO CHANGE IT TO USE THE WORD AND THE WORD OR. BECAUSE THEY'RE SEPARATE ITEMS, THEY'RE NOT INCLUSIVE OF EACH OTHER. AND THEN ON PAGE SIX THERE'S A SECTION UNDER COUNCIL DISTRICT OFFICE RESPONSIBILITIES FOR OPEN RECORDS REQUEST. IT SAYS NO COUNCIL MEMBER, LEGISLATIVE ASSISTANT OR STAFF MEMBER SHOULD MAKE ANY RESPONSE OF COUNCIL RECORDS AVAILABLE. THAT'S THE NEW LANGUAGE BECAUSE IT USED TO SAY ANY RECORDS OF THE COUNCIL, AND WE WANTED TO MAKE SURE THAT IT WAS VERY CLEAR THAT IT WAS OPEN RECORDS REQUEST. RESPONSIVE RECORDS TO THAT. AND OTHER THAN THAT, WE JUST ASK IF YOU COULD APPROVE. I MEAN, TO APPROVE THE AMENDMENT. YEAH. SO FIRST SOMEBODY NEEDS TO MAKE THAT THE LANGUAGE THAT YOU OFFERED. AND I THINK IT'S IN THE SYSTEM AS WELL. TO MAKE THAT IN THE FORM OF AN AMENDMENT, I'D LIKE TO MAKE A MOTION TO AMEND USING THE LANGUAGE READ IN BY THE CLERK. OKAY. DO I HAVE A SECOND? SECOND. THANK YOU. IS THERE ANY DISCUSSION ON THE AMENDMENT? HEARING NONE. ALL THOSE IN FAVOR SAY AYE. I. I. I. ANY OPPOSED? THE AYES HAVE IT. THE AMENDED RESOLUTION IS NOW BEFORE US. IS THERE ANY OTHER COMMENTS OR QUESTIONS ABOUT THIS? AGAIN I THINK AS THE CLERK MENTIONED, WE'RE REALLY JUST BRINGING YOU KNOW, WE'VE BEEN PRACTICING UNDER STATE LAW, BUT OUR POLICIES SORT OF LAG UPDATING. AND I THINK THROUGHOUT THE COURSE OF THE END OF THE YEAR AND PROBABLY INTO NEXT YEAR, WE'VE GOT SOME OTHER POLICIES AND PROCEDURES THAT THE CLERK'S OFFICE, THE BUSINESS TEAM AND OTHERS STEVE AND AARON HAVE BEEN WORKING THROUGH JUST TO KIND OF UPDATE AND BRING INTO COMPLIANCE. SO WE'LL HAVE A FEW MORE OF THESE PIECES OF LEGISLATION AS THE YEAR ENDS TO TRY TO WORK THROUGH THOSE AND JUST BRING THINGS BACK UP TO DATE AND REFLECTIVE OF WHAT OUR ACTUAL PROCEDURES ARE. WITHOUT ANY FURTHER DISCUSSION, THIS RESOLUTION ALLOWS FOR VOICE VOTE. ALL THOSE IN FAVOR SAY AY. AYE AYE. ANY OPPOSED? THE AYES HAVE IT BECAUSE OF THE AMENDMENT. THIS WILL GO TO OLD BUSINESS. AND WITH NO FURTHER BUSINESS BEFORE THE COMMITTEE ON COMMITTEES. AND WITHOUT OBJECTION, WE STAND ADJOURNED.
