Council Subcommittees
At a glance
- What: The structure of Council subcommittees: new Tenants and Rental Properties and Public Safety and Community Oversight subcommittees proposed September 3, and a proposed Budget and Fiscal Planning subcommittee on the November 12 agenda.
- Where it stands: Six subcommittees reported on October 8. Per the October 8 summary: Community Solutions for Livability and Well-being (Garlid chair, Amberg, Nichols); Federal and State Advocacy Review (Amberg chair, Garlid, Keating); Governance, Representation and Elections (Keating chair, Chin, Nichols); Public Safety and Community Oversight (Nichols chair, Woods, St. George); Revitalization of Tempe Town Lake (Amberg chair, Garlid, St. George); Tenants and Rental Properties (Nichols chair, Woods, Keating).
- Next: Council action on the proposed Budget and Fiscal Planning subcommittee (November 12 agenda; outcome not read).
Details
- Built from the City's posted agendas and legal action summaries as read; regular-session Council minutes are not posted, and agenda packets were not read, so debate is not recorded.
- The City website's site map lists the Tenants and Public Safety subcommittees as completed, while the October 8 and October 22 summaries still report on them, a minor inconsistency.
- Subcommittee report substance was skimmed, not read.
