MEETING PURPOSE
City Clerk Wenzel identified they were going to do a review of the
Sunshine Law, which they should go over every year. She further
commented on the 30-minute video they would be watching.
At this time, Council watched the Sunshine Law video.
Councilman Emter asked City Attorney Wolfe if he had some topics he
was interested in talking about, which he knew couldn' t be talked
about anywhere other than at a meeting but if he had a position paper
and he was interested in talking to the rest of the Council, not back
and forth communication but was interested in letting them know what
he was going to talk about, which he felt fell under the philosophy of
no surprises and he didn' t want to spring something on the rest of
Council that they didn' t know was coming, how would he get that
information to them. City Attorney Wolfe informed him he could
request it be placed on an agenda.
Councilman Emter verified letting the Council know ahead of time
through the agenda would be acceptable. City Attorney Wolfe informed
him it would.
