A RESOLUTION
Revising City Council Rules Concerning
Standing Committee Priorities
WHEREAS, the present City Council Rule 9.9.1 reads as
follows:
"During the first week of a chair's term the Chair
shall submit a prioritized agenda for Committee
approval and submission to the Council. The Chair
shall confer on a regular basis with staff to review
the agenda"; and
WHEREAS, the use of two month terms for Standing
Committee chairmen signficantly limits the time for Committee
Chairmen to develop and address their priorities; and
WHEREAS, it is believed that Standing Committee Chairmen
will advance Committee priorities without the development of a
Chairman's priority list at the beginning of each Chairman's
term.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF
• THE CITY OF EVANSTON, COOK COUNTY, ILLINOIS, that Rule 9.9.1 be
eliminated from the City Council Rules.
This Resolution shall be in full force and effect from
and after its passage and approval in the manner provided by
.'.. law.
