bill review process. <br />10. Process for Review and Prioritization of Legislation <br />The Legislative session is relatively short and as a result, bills can move quickly through the <br />legislative process. Regardless, the City will maintain a neutral position on any bills not yet <br />reviewed by City staff and acted upon by the IGR Committee. <br />Review by City staff: <br /> Once the bills are introduced, they are assigned by an IGR staff person to the <br />appropriate LC for review. <br /> Legislative Coordinators (LCs) in the appropriate City department analyze all <br />introduced bills that are of interest to or may affect the City. LC staff is determined <br />by each Department. <br /> LC staff turnaround for review and analysis of a bill is expected to be within 10 <br />working days of the assignment of a bill unless the movement of a bill warrants a <br />faster turn-around. In those cases, IGR staff will contact the LC and arrange for a <br />faster review. <br /> If a bill addresses one or more of the policies presented in the Legislative Policies for <br />that session, the particular policy is noted in the LC staff’s analysis of the bill. <br /> LC staff will relay both the pros and cons of a bill in their comments as well as any <br />amendments that would make the bill more favorable. <br /> LC will assign each bill a priority and a recommendation. <br />Legislative advocacy is done on the basis of a priority and recommendation system. LC <br />staff recommends a “support,” “oppose,” “neutral,” “monitor,” or “drop” recommendation <br />for all reviewed bills. LC staff also recommends a priority of 1, 2, or 3 on all reviewed bills. <br />The three priority assignments for legislative bills are as follows: <br /> <br />–The issues addressed by the bill areidentified in the City’s <br />Legislative Policies document. The bill would have a significant impact on City operations, <br />services, or finances in such ways as to fundamentally impact department administration, <br />organization, personnel, allocation of City resources, or local decision-making, either <br />negatively or positively. The issues addressed by the bill are of significant interest to the <br />City even if they do not directly impact the operations, services, or finances of the City. <br /> <br />Lobby Resource Allocation: Both IGR staff in Salem work on the bill, with a high support <br />level from the legislative coordinator(s) assigned to the bill. The Mayor and/or Council <br />members may testify before committees, possibly with both IGR staff and/or a legislative <br />coordinator. IGR staff contacts all or close to all members of all committees the bill is <br />assigned to. Depending on topic and recommendation, IGR staff will also contact as many <br />legislators as possible prior to public hearings or work sessions. In the event of a floor vote, <br />IGR staff contacts as many legislators as is possible in the 2-5 day period between <br />committee passage and the floor vote. Handouts would be placed in the Capitol mailboxes <br />of all legislators prior to a floor vote. <br /> <br />–The issues addressed by the bill are identified in the City’s <br />Legislative Policies document. The bill would have some impact, although manageable, on <br />City operations, services, or finances and would impact administration, organization, <br />Exhibit A -- Page 14 <br /> <br /> <br />
