At a glance
- What: Whether Council members need a simpler way than a colleagues memo to refer items to staff.
- Where it stands: Policy & Services Committee recommended on November 10, 2026, 3-0, no new process; instead amend handbook section 2.4 so colleagues memos can refer items to commissions and go on consent.
