Councilor Nathanson, seconded by Councilor Taylor, moved that the bill, with unanimous consent of the council, be read a second time by council bill number only, and that enactment be considered at that time. Roll call vote; the motion passed unanimously. Ms. Andersen asked the council to consider Council Bill 4708. Councilor Nathanson, seconded by Councilor Taylor, moved that the bill be approved and given final passage. Roll call vote; the motion passed unanimously, and became Ordinance No. 20174. VI. APPOINTMENT OF MEMBERS TO THE CITIZEN COMMITTEE ON COUNCIL COMPENSATION Councilor Nathanson read the names of all the applicants and the votes they received in the initial balloting so that it would be clear why she was moving to appoint certain candidates to the committee. Councilor Nathanson, seconded by Councilor Taylor, moved to appoint Jon Belcher, Don Bishoff, David Hinkley, and Rob 7ako to the Citizen Committee on Council Compensation. Councilor Pap~ objected to the process. He said that in the goal sessions at the first of the year, the council had agreed to push forward on a citizen committee to review many provisions of the charter. He said that to single out this one issue of the charter was going against good governmental principles and the stated objectives for the year. Councilor Meisner agreed that council had made a significant charter review it a primary goal in its biennial goals. He noted that it was a large undertaking and he could understand why it had not been immediately acted upon, but hoped the process would start soon. Councilor Kelly responded to Councilor Pap~, saying that he agreed that a broad charter review committee was needed. Councilor Kelly offered a friendly amendment to the motion to name the committee the Citizen Committee on Mayor and Council Compensation. MINUTES--Eugene City Council October 25, 1999 Page 4 7:30 p.m.
