ORAL PRESENTATIONS BY MEMBERS OF CITY COUNCIL

(a) Councilman Speck asked questions with respect to regulations regarding block parties.

There was considerable discussion by the Members of City Council, the City Attorney, Mr. O'Kane, Director of Transportation and Environmental Services, and the City Manager. The staff is working on an appeals process for granting of a waiver with respect to the requirement of liability insurance.

Councilman Speck stated it appears that this issue is on track and that his concerns are that (1) when a neighborhood comes to get a permit for a block party they at least know that there is the option of getting a waiver; (2) that the waiver is processed administratively and doesn't require some sort of prolonged petitioning process; and (3) that the rules for granting the waiver be relatively straightforward and not too burdensome.

(b) Councilman Speck reported on an observation he made recently on the Schokoe Slip in Richmond that there were no newsboxes or vending machines at all. Staff was requested to look into this to see if they did anything to create that control.

(c) Councilwoman Pepper spoke to Beverly Beidler's letter concerning management study. She indicated that Ms. Beidler suggested that Council request the City Manager to develop a work program that would assign an active role in improving departmental management to the Office of Management and Budget; to request the City Manager to assign employees with high levels of management skills and abilities to work with managers who need assistance in improving some of their management practices; and thirdly, to invite teams from other nearby jurisdictions to conduct workshops on good management practices for managers. It was suggested that these might be addressed at the June 22 work session or if not then as part of the Retreat.

(d) Mayor Ticer gave a report on the recent Schools/City Committee meeting. She indicated that she felt that they have been productive meetings.

Vice Mayor Cleveland, who is also a member of the Committee, stated that he also felt that they have been productive.

Councilmen Speck, Jackson, Donley and Rich participated in the discussion.

Council Member Rich stated, with respect to School Board Member Purdy's offer of resignation, that there have been five Council Members who have signed his letter, and announced that fact and requested that the vacancy be advertised to be filled, hopefully, by the end of June.

(A copy of Mr. Purdy's offer of resignation is on file in the office of the City Clerk and Clerk of Council, marked Exhibit No. 1 of Oral Presentations (d); 6/8/93, and is incorporated herewith as part of this record by reference.)

The City Attorney, Ms. Boyd, Executive Secretary for Boards and Commissions, and Ms. Evans, Assistant City Manager, spoke to the requirements to be met with respect to filling this vacancy.

It was determined that the vacancy would be advertised, a public hearing would be held on June 22, and the appointment will be made at a Special Meeting on June 30.
