City Council Legal Review Committee <br />Meeting Minutes <br />May 20, 2020 <br />Page 2 of 4 <br />Councilmember Leh noted the goal is to make sure that whatever process is <br />used we need to adhere to all of the provisions of the charter and show true <br />transparency. <br />Councilmember Brown noted this version changes the language about <br />indemnifying the City. He asked why staff is recommending those changes. City <br />Attorney Kelly stated substantively it doesn't change much. It does break down <br />the categories and uses the land use code to identify the precise types of <br />applications that would be allowed to be heard by Planning Commission and City <br />Council and those not allowed. <br />Councilmember Leh asked if any more applicants have decided to not proceed to <br />hearing because of the indemnification requirement. Director Zuccaro stated <br />since the last meeting there was one other applicant who declined to go ahead <br />with an electronic hearing, but he does not know if that was due to the <br />indemnification requirement. <br />Councilmember Brown asked why the section giving the City Manager discretion <br />to decide what could be held electronically was struck. City Attorney Kelly stated <br />this resolution is intended to allow the Council to expressly decide what kinds of <br />hearings should be held by electronic hearing and which shouldn't be while <br />understanding that if there are technical issues a hearing may need to be <br />continued. <br />Councilmember Brown was concerned this gives applicants the right to an <br />electronic hearing. City Attorney Kelly stated it doesn't give the right but does <br />give the applicant a more clear process of what to expect moving forward this <br />way unless there is a technological reason it can't be heard electronically. The <br />goal is to create a more predictable process both for applicants and staff as to <br />which hearings can move forward. <br />Councilmember Leh stated he does like making this more predictable with less <br />discretion in the process. <br />Councilmember Leh stated he doesn't like section A2. He is concerned about <br />having these public hearings at Planning Commission by electronic means. He <br />will not support that provision. He would like to provide an alternative for that. <br />Councilmember Fahey stated she feels this resolution is a good representation of <br />what the Council decided they would like to see done when passing the earlier <br />resolution. As whole this document represents what the Council agreed to. <br />Members discussed accessibility for meetings and how the City can help <br />accommodate people and make sure anyone can participate if interested. <br />
