DRAFT WITH PROPOSED AMENDMENTS <br /> 4/1/04 <br /> <br /> EUGENE CITY COUNCIL OPERATING AGREEMENTS <br /> Exhibit to Resolution Number 4777 <br /> Approved on September 22, 2003 <br /> <br />6. COMMITTEES OF THE COUNCIL <br />6.01 Creation of Committees <br />While the city code governs appointments to certain committees, the code grants broad general <br />powers to the Mayor and Council to create subcommittees or special ad hoc committees of the <br />Council. The Mayor shall nominate and the Council shall appoint the members of any committee <br />established by the Council unless a different procedure is specified at the time the committee is <br />established. The charge to the committee shall be clearly stated at the time the committee is <br />established, and the committee shall disband when its work is complete. Committees may be <br />composed of councilors, interested citizens or both. <br /> <br />6.02 Standing Committees of the Council <br />There is one standing committee of the Council, the Intergovernmental Relations Committee. <br /> <br />6.03 Standing Advisory Bodies to the Council <br />There are five standing advisory bodies to the City Council. These are created in the Eugene Code <br />and exist to provide advice on policy matters. These are: 1) the Budget Committee; 2) the <br />Planning Commission; 3) the Police Commission; 4) the Human Rights Commission; and 5) the <br />Citizen Involvement Committee. <br /> <br />7. CONDUCT AT MEETINGS <br />7.01 Roberts Rules of Order <br />Conduct at Council meetings and committee meetings is governed by Roberts Rules of Order, <br />Revised. The Council has the obligation to be clear and simple in its procedures and in its <br />consideration of the questions coming before it. Council members shall avoid invoking the finer <br />points of parliamentary rules which may serve only to obscure the issues. <br /> <br />7.02 Other Meeting Guidelines <br />The presiding officer shall be responsible for ensuring order and decorum are maintained. <br />Behavior or actions that are unreasonably loud or disruptive shall be cause for removal from <br />Council meetings. This includes engaging in violent or distracting action, making loud or <br />disruptive noise or using similar language, and refusing to obey an order of the presiding officer. <br /> <br />Council members speak only for themselves and shall be open, direct and candid. They work to <br />keep discussion moving, and call for a "process check" if the discussion becomes bogged down. <br />Time limits may be set on topics. <br /> <br />Eugene City Council Operating Agreements - September 22, 2003 Exhibit to Resolution Number 4777 <br />Page 7 of 13 <br /> <br /> <br />
