MAYOR'S ACTIVITY REPORT Mayor Coppinger, assisted by City Manager Grohman, presented certificates of appreciation to members of the 1993 Charter Review Commission. Mayor Coppinger issued a proclamation honoring Girl Scout Week and local Scout representatives accepted the document. Mayor Coppinger reported his attendance at meetings of the Ministerial Alliance, Brazos River Water Authority, Council workshops, and a Centennial luncheon held at Pearland Junior High M East campus. At Mayor Coppinger's request, City Manager Grohman reported on the railroad crossing at Knapp Road which is correctly in place now and also reported on the City's compliance with the Federal Clean Air Act. COUNCIL ACTIVITY REPORTS Councilmember Miller reported his attendance at Brazoria County Cities Association on February 16. Councilmember Frank reported his attendance at a workshop with the School District on February 17 regarding Robert's Rules of Order. Mr. Frank reported he also attended the Brazoria County Cities Association meeting as well as the workshop on Cloverfield Airport held this evening. Stating he had received a call from a citizen, Councilmember Frank inquired of the City Attorney regarding amending the Charter under the Local Government Code. City Attorney Gregg stated that while State law is more permissive, the City's Charter controls and, having received the Charter Review Commission's report, it can't be added to or deleted from. Mr. Gregg stated the City is following appropriate procedure. Councilmember Colson reported her attendance at the Brazoria County Cities Association meeting. Mrs. Colson also attended the session hosted by the School District on parliamentary procedure and stated that Dr. Jess Butler, the moderator of the session, had stated there were only two elements that were necessary for a meeting - common sense and courtesy. Councilmember Colson read the following quote from Robert's Rules of Order: "The great lesson for democracies to learn is for the majority to give to the minority a full, free opportunity to present their side of the case, and then for the minority, having failed to win a majority to their views, gracefully to submit and to recognize the action as that of the entire organization, and cheerfully to assist in carrying it out, until they can secure its repeal." Councilmember Weber reported his attendance at the Ministerial alliance breakfast, Brazoria County Cities Association, School District's meeting on parliamentary procedure, special meeting on Charter Review Commission's submission, workshop meeting on impact fees, and workshop on Cloverfield. Councilmember Weber asked City Attorney Gregg to read his response to Mr. Weber's question raised at the last Council meeting regarding requiring documentation from employees. Mr. Gregg read the following into the records: February 25, 1994 Honorable Randy Weber Councilman City of Pearland Dear Randy: The CHARTER says: (1) under 4.01 (a) that the CITY MANAGER (hereafter "CM") shall " . be responsible to the City Council (hereafter CC) for the ,... i administration of all the affairs of the city." (2) under 4.01 (c) "DUTIES OF CITY MANAGER", (1) that he/she shall "have the authority, with the approval of the City Council, to appoint and remove all department heads." (2) and the authority "to appoint and remove all other employees in the administrative service of the City." (3) under 4.01 (c) (1), it also says: "Except for the purpose of inquiry, the City Council and its members shall deal with the administrative service solely through the city manager-" (4) under 3.07 POWERS OF CITY COUNCIL subsection (p), it says: "No individual member of the City Council shall have the power to act, investigate, make appointments or inquire into the conduct of any office, department or agency without the specific authorization of the City Council in an official meeting." I have been asked (2-17-94 fax) the following by Councilman Weber: "Can we, as a CITY, and specifically, can our City Manager, require an employee to document and/or give written statements every time a councilmember either comes into city hall or interacts in any way with that employee?" In fairness, Paul Grohman says that the practice has been sparingly used and he characterizes it as only in matters involving litigation. I assume "litigation" does not include the defamation suit where the City Secretary was joined as a nominal party since the city's records have a bearing. I am aware that there are allegations of more widespread use. As the question is phrased, the answer is no. This is a hard one to put your hand on why it's wrong, even though you know it's wrong. The response is best made in the extremes: (1) If this is a standing policy in all instances of interaction between council and staff, the answer is clearly "no." (2) If this is a standing policy as to all interaction with certain specified councilmen, the answer is clearly "no." (3) There are instances where it can be acceptable: If this is a practice followed only in instances of matters clearly pertaining to litigation filed or threatened by the city against the councilman or against the city by that councilman, or clearly involving pending or threatened litigation by or against the city, it could be proper. There is a world of difference between a situation where ,john Q. Public has a suit pending against the city and is seen talking to several departments of the city and a situation where a councilman enters the city building and his or her trail is followed by inquisitive staffers asking what was discussed. It is not proper for the person demanding the affidavit to seek same for his own use in the event litigation may occur between the demander and the city. It should be used sparingly. It should be requested and not demanded as a precondition of continued employment. The optionality of giving of the statement should be made clear, so the employee doesn't feel that his or her job is impliedly threatened. If the matter is serious enough in the mind of the CITY MANAGER, the better practice would be to seek the City Attorney's assistance or guidance or both before the extreme practice of demanding such a statement is utilized. In short, it has no business as a routine management tool. The regular use has a chilling effect on all employees. In the extreme, used as a tool to squelch the flow of information to council, it could become a form of insubordination - insubordination by the City Manager. Now, having said that, I must make it clear that the CM is the supervisor of "administrative service, and council is not. Council has no business conducting investigations of staff matters unless the council, as a whole, has authorized an investigation. The Charter is clear in that regard. But, if a councilman is violating the charter by a rogue individual investigation practice, there are remedies to deal with that and it does not mean that the CM is free to demand statements from whomever was approached. Note that the councilmembers are barred from dealing with the providers of "administrative services" in any manner other than through the CM, "...except for the purpose of inquiry." That could mean that they can ask routine questions that don't reach the level of an "investigation" (requiring council ok as a prerequisite) or that could mean that "inquiry" and "investigation" are one and the same and both require council action as a pre -condition. I think M the words mean different things or they would have used the same word. In my opinion, council is not muzzled to the point that they can say nothing to city employees. They can exchange pleasantries, inquire into whether or not a department is running smoothly or, if not, why not, but not daily, weekly or annoyingly. They may seek copies of any public documents in the same manner that the public is allowed to under the Open Records Act and if some special "tattle on the councilmen seeking copies" rule exists, that is improper and must cease. "Inquiry" implies "How's it going?," not "What has the CM told you to do?" Councilmembers are entitled to and should stay informed. They should not use that as an excuse to go around or undermine or interfere with the management function. If a matter of concern is raised by such a routine "inquiry," and an "investigation" of any kind is warranted, it should be brought to the attention of the CM and that should be the end of council involvement unless and until an "investigation" is warranted and council so decides publicly. The roles are different - a manager manages, a council legislates. That is why he is so named. Council needs to let the manager manage. If a councilman abuses the "inquiry," the remedy is not for the CM to demand an inquisition. The limits are fairly logical. This opinion is a limited and cautionary one - the CM is in charge but the use of statements from employees is risky and should be sparingly used. It is a "two iron" and not a "putter." This opinion also mentions certain hypothetical scenarios that may or may not have occurred. The inclusion of a hypothetical is not to be interpreted as a finding by me that rumored conduct occurred. I was asked a question. I am responding partly by example. Any "investigation" of the extent of this practice should not occur without council action. The danger of the practice of demanding statements from employees flows in reverse: Were someone to feel that his job was on the line and quits rather than get involved in what he perceives as political warfare, the city could suffer the consequences in damages. Had that person already filed a complaint with the THRC or the EEOC when the demand was made, the claim would be amplified. My usual instruction and procedure is to direct opinions through the City Manager for distribution to the Council. I have not followed that procedure with this memo, at your request, since it deals with an alleged practice of the City Manager. Under these unusual circumstances, that is an acceptable departure. Yours truly, /sf Dick Gregg City Attorney Councilmember Smith reported he had mentioned activities. On February Committee met, Mr. Smith reported. would be attending more meetings on CITY MANAGER'S REPORT attended most of the previously 16, the Clear Creek Watershed Councilmember Smith stated he emergency management. City Manager Grohman commented that there was a lot of construction going on in the City and reported on a hostage situation that recently took place. At Councilmember Frank's inquiry, discussion centered on MEB, contractor for the FM 518 waterline relocation, and the company's lack of progress. City Manager Grohman informed that City Engineer John Hargrove had met with him recently, giving input and addressing the problems. CITIZENS 1. Grady Allen, Elks Lodge.

NEW BUSINESS REPORT BY CITY ATTORNEY ON CHARTER AMENDMENTS PURSUANT TO SPECIAL MEETING OF FEBRUARY 22, 1994, AND FIRST READING OF ORDINANCE NO. 670, ORDERING SPECIAL ELECTION FOR MAY 7, 1994, AND PROVIDING FOR SUBMISSION TO THE VOTERS OF CERTAIN PROPOSED CHARTER AMENDMENTS Ordinance No. 670 was read in caption by Mayor Coppinger. Said Ordinance No. 670 reads in caption as follows: ORDINANCE NO. 670 AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF PEARLAND, TEXAS, ORDERING A SPECIAL ELECTION TO BE HELD ON THE 7TH DAY OF MAY, 1994; DESIGNATING THE HOURS AND PLACE FOR HOLDING SUCH ELECTION AND PROVIDING FOR SUBMISSION TO THE VOTERS OF CERTAIN PROPOSED CHARTER AMENDMENTS. City Attorney Gregg stated he had received the notations from last week's meeting on the recommendations from the Charter Review Commission. The ordinance was prepared with two exceptions, Mr. Gregg informed. Referring, in part, to his letter to Council dated February 25, 1994, Mr. Gregg offered the following comments: 11(1) the proposed amendment of Section 6.13 entitled "Initiative." The section to be amended has no subparts. It covers two pages and contains all of the procedures for the public (non council) initiation of legislation - how many voters must sign, timetable, notarization, whom to file with, effect of inaction by council, etc. We have no state statute or code to fall back on since initiative, referendum and recall are creatures of charter. General law cities do not have initiative. The Commission said: "Change the section to "Qualified voters of the City of Pearland may initiate legislation by submitting a petition in accordance with state and federal petition regulations." There are no state or federal statutes on initiative procedures. What I have opined really happened is that this came to everyones' attention back during the great hoorah over the recall petitions. There are some minimum requirements for all kinds of petitions in the election code and in case law. These deal with legible address, voter registration, etc. This must have caught the Commission's attention. They added this provision. This provision goes much further and strips the procedure of all order and procedural safeguards. I spoke with Lester Rorick and he recalls that the motivation was as I have suggested. He sat in. Since I am of the opinion that the charter does not let you tinker with the content of the recommendation and no one should want such chaos, I recommend that this amendment be rejected. (2) Section 10.15 The Standing "Committee" vs. "Commission" confusion. There were members of the Commission who appeared at the last meeting to say what they meant vs. what they said. That won't work. The procedure is for the document to be filed and for the council to act upon those written recommendations, up or down. There is no provision for submitting what they meant to say. There must be some orderly procedure and reliance on the written word or all of government in 1994 would be in the mind of Bill Clinton or Phil Gramm. Next year other minds would tell us what they meant - a bipartisan but sobering thought. The minutes of the special meeting will win no Pulitzer Prize but the best I can tell is that the council first visited Section 10.15 and sent it to me for recommendation regarding whether we can CONTINUED FROM VOLUME 20 submit it as "Committee." Then you read the memo at the end of the report and may have considered sending the "memo" to the voters. Bad idea. The memo is only a recommendation. It makes no rule. You can create a standing committee any time without the memo in the Charter. Weare stuck with what they said (Commission). Recommendation: Reject it. You can't cure it and you don't need to appoint such a committee - one that can focus on the Charter, gather the data in the off season and report it to the Charter Commission when it convenes to do its duty. That is all the amendment would have done had it been written correctly." It was moved by Councilmember Smith, seconded by Councilmember Weber, that Ordinance No. 670 be passed and approved on its first of two readings. It was noted that the document before Council did not contain the two items Mr. Gregg had suggested be rejected but that it had been revised to include a proposed amendment which had been inadvertently omitted when the ordinance was drafted. This amendment became no. 17 and resulted in the renumbering of the following amendments. Voting "Aye" - Councilmembers Smith, Weber, Colson, Frank, and Miller. Voting "No" - None.

It's not going to change much in the opinion, Mr. Gregg said, but I would like to reserve the right to make mention of that.
