Facilitated Legislative Agenda Discussion
Council discusses potential items for the City's Legislative Agenda. Members will: - Discuss and explore potential legislative priorities and receive feedback from Two Capitols, colleagues, and City Administration - Hear context from Two Capitols on issues facing other localities, anticipated state-level action, and legislative priorities to consider. City Administration officials, including DCAOs and select Department Directors, will be available throughout this portion. Goal: Each member leaves with a sense of potential items to submit as a priority, or items for Council staff to research further.
