DRAFT WITH PROPOSED AMENDMENTS <br /> 9/1/04 <br /> <br /> EUGENE CITY COUNCIL OPERATING AGREEMENTS <br /> Exhibit to Resolution Number 4777 <br /> Approved on September 22, 2003 <br /> <br />minutes, and third round comments will be no longer than one minute. This, however, will <br />be at the discretion of the mayor or presiding officer. <br /> <br />When an amendment to the main motion is introduced, comments will be limited to two <br />minutes for the mayor and council until the presiding officer deems that one-minute <br />limitations are necessary_ due to time constraints. <br /> <br />7.03 Public Conduct <br />The rules of conduct for members of the public shall generally be the same as for the Council. <br />The Code prohibits any person from bringing in to a Council meeting flags, signs, posters, and <br />placards unless authorized by the presiding officer. The Eugene Code specifically permits arm <br />bands, emblems, badges, and other articles wom on personal clothing, so long as such items do <br />not extend from the body in such a way as to cause injury to another. <br /> <br />8. COUNCILOR REQUEST FOR STAFF ASSISTANCE <br />8.01 Two-Hour Rule <br />Initiatives which require more than two hours of staff time must be approved by the Council. <br />Requests that involve less than two hours staff time or resources should be directed to the City <br />Manager. <br /> <br />8.02 Major Request <br />A councilor who desires major policy, ordinance research, or other staff assistance should first <br />raise the issue at a Council work session. The Council should decide whether to proceed with the <br />issue or ordinance before stafftime is spent. <br /> <br />8.03 Tracking Council Requests <br />Except for routine inquiries, the City Manager shall respond to councilors' requests for <br />information or assistance. The Manager shall assign these requests to appropriate City staff and <br />track progress on the assignments. This process eliminates the possibilities of staff members <br />duplicating each other's efforts or a request being overlooked. In each weekly information packet <br />a list of current requests for assistance will be provided. <br /> <br />Eugene City Council Operating Agreements - September 22, 2003 Exhibit to Resolution Number 4777 <br />Page 9 of 14 <br /> <br /> <br />
