The minutes of the Council meeting of Apri14, 2006 were approved as written. Councilman Gareau commented that Finance Director Copfer had distributed to Council, prior to the Council meeting of April 18, 2006, letters she had received in support of a pay range for the Network Administrator. She has communicated her request to include those letters in the minutes of April 18, 2006. Councilman Gareau made a motion to amend the Council meeting minutes of April 18, 2006 to include the communications that were distributed to Council concerning the position of Network Administrator. The motion was seconded by Council Member Dailey Jones. Councilman Miller commented that this issue had come up in the past, and it is his understanding that the minutes are to reflect the business that occurred on a given night. The minutes do reflect that Mrs. Copfer stated she distributed the letters. So, the minutes as they exist are accurate. He believes to add those letters is incorrect and would alter that which actually occurred. He asked the Law Director if he wished to comment. Law Director Dubelko said that certainly the minutes should accurately reflect what transpired at the meeting. It is up to Council to determine whether or not the proposed would accurately reflect what occurred at the meeting. Roll call: Gareau, yes; Dailey Jones, no; Miller, no; Barker, no; Orlowski, no; Ryan, no; Talton, no. The motion failed with one yes vote and six no votes. The minutes of the Council meeting of April 18, 2006 were approved as written. President Kennedy announced the following legislation would be considered for passage under suspension of the rules: second reading, Resolution 2006-85; first reading, Resolutions 2006-89, 2006-90 and Ordinance 2006-94.
