BACKGROUND As a matter of procedure, the City Council is routinely asked to ratify the actions taken by the Intergovernmental Relations (IGR) Committee. This is done by submitting the minutes of each committee meeting to the council. At the February 13, 2012, full City Council Meeting, the February 1, 2012 Minutes were on the consent calendar for approval. A motion was not made to ratify these minutes; therefore, they are being re-submitted to the full City Council for ratification. RELATED CITY POLICIES Ratification of IGR Committee actions is the making or affirming of the City of Eugene’s policy with respect to Federal and State legislative issues or such other matters as may come to the council from the committee. COUNCIL OPTIONS The council may ratify or decline to ratify the IGR Committee’s actions as set forth in the minutes of the committee's meetings. CITY MANAGER’S RECOMMENDATION The City Manager recommends ratification of the IGR Committee's actions as set forth in the minutes of the committee's meetings. SUGGESTED MOTION Move to ratify the IGR Committee's actions as set forth in the minutes of the February 1, 2012, and February 8, 2012, IGR meetings. S:\CMO\2012 Council Agendas\M120227\S1202272C.doc
