Description/Analysis
IssueDetail
Issue Detail:
There are many potential discussion items on the follow-up log for the Animal Wellbeing Commission. Staff would like to take the Commission’s priorities into account when selecting agenda items, and a poll was identified as a fair and reliable way to do this. Staff are advancing previously identified priorities of the Animal Wellbeing Commission such as the “final plea” pilot program and “shelter redemption policy”. The list of suggested items for the poll (Attachment 3) represents items that have not yet been advanced.
The Follow-Up Log is a resource managed by City staff. It is a running list consisting of items of interest for which the Animal Wellbeing Commission would like to be agendized. To place an item on the Follow-Up Log for a future agenda members may make a request during “Commission Ideas - Comments and Questions”.
At future meetings, Commissioners will continue to be able to add items to the log by introducing the suggestion during Commissioner Comments-Ideas and Questions. The committee will then approve those additions by approving a Consent Calendar item at the following meeting.
