Councilmember Bullock requested more detail on the rationale behind that change since it seemed <br />to deviate from what was discussed in the committee. Councilmember Baker stated that he <br />supports the change since, ultimately, whatever the process is, it will be approved by Council. If <br />Council does not think the process is competitive enough, it reserves the right to alter or reject it. <br />He further stated it is a big change from how Lakewood procures services, but he believes it strikes <br />the right balance between transparency and process. <br />Councilmember Shachner clarified that the new language under discussion would require the <br />proposed internal controls to be submitted to Council for approval, and once approved they cannot <br />be changed without further action from Council. <br />On the motion: On the motion to amend S.
