The <br />ordinance expires on June 30, 2013. At the May 8 work session, the council provided direction <br />to extend the suspension to July 31 to provide the additional time needed to finalize program <br />modifications. <br /> <br /> <br />COUNCIL OPTIONS <br />1. Approve the ordinance extending the MUPTE suspension to July 31, 2013. <br />2. Do not approve the ordinance (MUPTE program reinstated on July 1, 2013). <br /> <br /> <br />CITY MANAGER’S RECOMMENDATION <br />The City Manager recommends approval of the proposed ordinance. <br /> <br /> <br />SUGGESTED MOTION <br />Move to adopt Council Bill 5093 extending the suspension of the MUPTE program to July 31, 2013. <br /> <br /> <br />ATTACHMENTS <br />A.
