Agenda Memo Review and Approval Procedure
1. Purpose
This procedure governs how agenda memos move from initial drafting through committee recommendation and final
Council approval. It applies to all agenda memos submitted by City staff or a designated contractor.
2. Overview: Two Phases
The workflow runs in two phases:
Phase 1 — Committee Level. Department Head submission to City Attorney (purpose dependent), and City
Administrator review, and ends with the item going through the required committee(s).
Phase 2 — Council Level. Begins once committee review is complete. The Department Head submits a
truncated form incorporating any changes, which goes through City Attorney (purpose dependent) and City
Administrator review before the item is finalized for the Council agenda.

Comments
The Committee should consider the costs of the requested capital items and
rank them in order of their importance to construct. For the operating portion the
education expense is appropriate and if the committee wishes to promote
additional programing then there should also be an expected cost/revenue
discussion.
