HomeMy WebLinkAboutResolution 45-22 To: Members of Council From: Dana L. McDaniel, City Manager Date: September 20, 2022 Initiated By: Jennifer Readler, Law Director Re: Review of Council Liaison Role 5HVROXWLRQ Summary City Council discussed the recommendations of the Administrative Committee regarding the Council liaison role and a potential change to the Council Rules of Order to reflect that role at the August 29, 2022, work session. For Council’s consideration, attached is a draft redline reflecting the latest version. This rule will address liaisons to internal boards and commissions that Council appoints. Internally, there are boards and commissions that are both recommending and final decision-making bodies, such as PZC, ARB and BZA. There are also internal commissions that are solely recommending bodies to Council, such as CSAC. Liaisons to external organizations, such as MORPC, the Dublin Arts Council and the US 33 Corridor, are addressed as well. Council also discussed the boards and commissions to which liaisons might be appointed at the work session. Council determined it would be prudent to appoint a liaison to the ARB to serve in addition to the currently appointed liaison to the PZC. That appointment will take place via another resolution at such point in time Council determines to move forward. Office of the City Manager 5555 Perimeter Drive • Dublin, OH 43017-1090 Phone: 614-410-4400 • Fax: 614-410-4490 Memo 12.03 Council Liaisons to City Boards and Commissions a. Council may assign a member as a liaison to any of the City’s boards and commissions. b. Liaisons are not members of the assigned board or commission and shall not have voting rights, except as otherwise provided by Revised Charter Section 7.03(a), which pertains to the Planning and Zoning Commission. c. The primary role of a liaison is that of facilitator of communications between the board or commission and Council. The liaison shall serve as the designated channel of communication between the board or commission and Council and help identify training and planning opportunities, such as coordinating joint work sessions to address topics of interest. The liaison shall work to ensure that Council is regularly updated on the work of the board or commission. d. Liaisons act as a representative of the full Council and, as such, can only provide guidance that clearly represents the guidance of the full Council. e. Members who serve as liaisons shall not unduly influence any decision of the board or commission including any active cases. The liaison may, however, assist and provide information regarding Council goals, vision, policy and legislative history. f. The liaison should regularly meet with the chair and vice-chair of the board or commission, Planning staff and Legal staff in agenda meetings as the workload requires. However, the liaison should generally not regularly attend board and commission meetings. g. Council shall appoint liaisons at the first regular meeting of Council in each even-numbered year (the organizational meeting). 12.04 Council Liaisons to Another Public Entity or An Organization a. Council may assign a member as a liaison to another public entity or an organization. Those organizations include, but are not limited to the following: i. Mid-Ohio Regional Planning Commission ii. Dublin City Schools Board of Education iii. US 33 Corridor iv. Logan-Union-Champaign Regional Planning Commission v. Dublin Arts Council vi. Dublin Veterans Committee vii. Washington Township viii. Central Ohio Transit Authority b. Liaisons act as a representative of the full Council and, as such, can only provide guidance that clearly represents the guidance of the full Council. c. The liaison shall serve as the designated channel of communication and facilitate collaboration and coordination between the organization and Council. d. The liaison shall work to ensure that Council is regularly updated on the work of the organization.   &281&,/58/(62)25'(5    '(),1,7,212)7(506   &KDUWHU±WKH5HYLVHG&KDUWHURI'XEOLQ2KLRHIIHFWLYH-XO\DQG
