Roll Call Present: Councilmembers Cook-Kallio, McGovern, Sullivan, Thorne, Mayor Hosterman Absent: None AGENDA AMENDMENTS Councilmember Sullivan requested continuance of Items 20 and 17A. Councilmember Cook- Kallio asked to reconsider continuance of Item 17A. Councilmember Sullivan briefly discussed the purpose of Item 17A, placing a competing measure on the ballot, possibly scheduling a special meeting, and the need for community participation. Councilmember Cook-Kallio voiced concerns with participation due to the summer schedule and those present and available tonight to speak. Mayor Hosterman agreed there were conflicting summer schedules and suggested tentatively setting a special meeting for July 1, 2008. Councilmember Sullivan requested a vote of the Council to schedule this date, as it was previously canceled by the entire Council some time ago, as well as the first regular August meeting date. Councilmembers discussed additional alternate dates in July and August and due to Councilmember availability, Item 17A was proposed to be continued to a date certain. City Attorney Roush said the options per the Council Rules are that any Councilmember may continue an item not subject to a legally or imposed deadline to the next Council meeting (July 15) or to another date agreeable to a Council majority. Mayor Hosterman confirmed Item 17b remained on the agenda. Councilmember Cook-Kallio referred to the Minutes of May 20, 2008, Matters Initiated, wherein it stated she traveled to the Amador Valley Competition Civics Team at the Nationals. She said it was actually in Washington, D.C. On the minutes of June 3, 2008, she needed to recuse herself up to 8:35 p.m. Councilmember McGovern and Thorne also noted they provided the City Clerk with minor corrections to the minutes, which were reflected.
