He felt the council and City were <br />at a larger junction than just the question of what to do with City Hall. <br /> <br />Ms. Bettman reiterated the issues she thought should be decided prior to moving forward, such as whether <br />or not to have the Police Department contiguous to the City Hall facility. She stressed the need to reach <br />consensus at the council on the "discrete issues." <br /> <br />Ms. Ortiz stated that she had asked for motion language to remove the railroad yards from the proposed <br />Enterprise Zone, slated for discussion and action at a future meeting. <br /> <br />Mayor Piercy stressed the importance of ensuring an adequate amount of public participation to support <br />the progress that the council wished to make. She added that she believed when the City Manager and <br />staff came before the council and provided their opinions on items their intent was to inform the council <br />and not to influence decisions. <br /> <br />Mayor Piercy adjourned the meeting at 1:15 p.m. <br /> <br />Respectfully submitted, <br /> <br />Dennis M.
