There was no objection to the changes proposed by Ms. Nathanson. Minutes of March 17, 1999. Ms. Taylor asked that paragraph 4 under Item IV, on page 3 of the March 17, 1999, minutes be corrected to read as follows: "Ms. Taylor said she could not agree to any plan that did not guarantee saving the land north of the tracks; that the park has harmed downtown; that the river front area is a real treasure and ways should be found to preserve it." There was no objection to the proposed change. Mr. Kelly noted that the bottom of page 7 of the March 17, 1999, minutes did not reflect a vote on the main motion following the vote on calling the question. Mr. Meisner moved, seconded by Ms. Nathanson, to approve Item A, the City Council minutes, as corrected. The motion passed unanimously, 8:0. Mr. Kelly asked staff to improve on the way the Council Committee on Intergovernmental Relations (CCIGR) reports on legislative bills and issues, with some correlation between the minutes and the bills included on the table of bills considered by the group. He added that deferred or dropped bills were not referred to at all. Tim Black, CCIGR Committee staff, indicated that he had received helpful suggestions from Ms. Taylor. He explained that the order of the bills are listed by department. Hereafter, at Ms. Taylor's suggestion, all bill titles will be posted in the minutes along with a page citation for the table. Mr. Farr and Ms. Nathanson pointed out process improvements during the evolution of the committee's work over the years. Ms. Nathanson added that the council can expect slight changes over time due to technological improvements and input. Mr. Meisner moved, seconded by Ms. Nathanson, to ratify the Council Committee on Intergovernmental Relations action of April 15, 1999, and the portion of the actions taken at its May 5, 1999 meeting with respect to a grant application.
