was being videotaped from a police vehicle, and the last one made it a failure to produce government issued identification if it was in a person’s possession a crime. Ms. Bettman thought they should look into creating a process for this. She felt a department should propose its ideas for legislature and it should at least be placed on a council’s consent calendar for approval. Ms. Wilson said they would work on a process. She noted that the CCIGR would review two bills that had been introduced by the professional organizations, one having to do with the polygraph and the other that sought to waive the requirement for notification of the use of vehicle-mounted video cameras and neither of these had arisen from the City of Eugene. Ms. Wilson asked whether the CCIGR preferred hard copies or email links to the bills. Ms. Taylor and Ms. Bettman indicated a preference for links, but they requested hard copies of staff recommendations. Ms. Taylor requested a list of legislators and staff, including email addresses and phone numbers. Ms. Wilson agreed to provide this. Ms. Bettman expressed interest in the field burning legislation that was planned to be introduced. She wanted to see a draft as soon as it became available so that they could take a position on it. Ms. Wilson responded that they had not seen the bill at this point. She said the only bill that had come from this region’s delegation thus far was a bill that Senator Vicki Walker had introduced to eliminate the Boundary Commission, Senate Bill 417. In response to a question from Mayor Piercy, Ms. Wilson explained that Sen. Walker had made a campaign promise to introduce this piece of legislation. The meeting adjourned at 1:14 p.m. Respectfully submitted, Dennis M. Taylor City Manager (Recorded by Ruth Atcherson) MINUTES—Council Committee on Intergovernmental January 16, 2007 Page 7 Relations
