Time demands in the Legislature may not allow for each bill on which the IGR Committee takes <br />a position to be fully vetted by the full City Council before some type of action on the bill needs <br />to occur. <br />If a position the IGR Committee has taken on a bill is not unanimous, the position on that bill <br />will be neutral until the full City Council weighs in and directs a position. The bill will then be <br />placed on the next available City Council agenda. <br />Although any bill that has been reviewed by the IGR Committee may be pulled for discussion at <br />the request of any councilor or the Mayor at the City Council meeting, as a matter of practice <br />and courtesy to the members of the Council who do not sit on the IGR Committee, any bill on <br />which the IGR Committee is not in unanimous agreement will be specifically noted. <br />The City Council can modify the position taken by the IGR Committee on a bill; the final <br />direction to staff on any bill comes from the City Council. <br />12. Process for Federal Lobbying Efforts <br />The IGR Committee and IGR staff address Federal lobbying priorities in concert with a number <br />of the City’s local governmental partners. <br />The Federal priorities begin with a review of opportunities for funding in the next Federal budget <br />and goals that are specific to Eugene or the area. The IGR Committee meets and reviews the list <br />of potential priority projects. Potential projects should be those projects which have already gone <br />through the proper authorization channels and are “shovel ready” projects. Once the IGR <br />Committee reviews the list of potential projects, the Committee develops a list of project goals <br />that are considered to be achievable. <br />After the proposed goals have been vetted by staff, United Front partners, and other community <br />partners, and the IGR Committee, the priorities list is then presented to the full City Council for <br />review and approval. <br />The final list becomes part of the “United Front” agenda which is presented to the area’s <br />congressional representatives, executive department staff, and other potential funding sources in <br />Washington, D.C. The attendees on the lobbying trips typically include the Mayor, chair of the <br />IGR Committee, and appropriate City staff. <br />13. Grants and Funding Applications <br />The IGR Committee acts on staff recommendations for grant and other funding applications <br />from outside agencies such as governmental or private entities. This process is intended to help <br />avoid situations in which City departments may inadvertently be competing with each other for <br />funding, and to allow the IGR Committee and City Council to review staff plans for expenditures <br />of grant funds. <br />City staff interested in seeking funding prepares a written overview of the funding application <br />for review by the IGR Committee at its next regularly scheduled meeting. <br />Eugene City Council Operating Agreements – October 2011 <br />Page 16 of 19 <br /> <br />
