A RESOLUTION OF THE SEAL BEACH CITY COUNCIL
AMENDING THE COUNCIL RULES OF PROCEDURE (COUNCIL
POLICY 100-03) REGARDING ALLOCATION OF STAFF
RESOURCES TO ADDRESS EMERGENT ISSUES
THE SEAL BEACH CITY COUNCIL DOES HEREBY RESOLVE:
Section 1. The City Council hereby amends Section 10.D of Council Policy
100-03 to read as follows:
1. All Council Member requests for written reports or research shall be addressed to
the City Manager. The City Manager shall inform all Council Members that a Council Member has
made such a request. Any Council Member may request a copy of any written material provided
to the requesting Council Member.
2. If the City Manager determines that responding to a Council Member's request for
a report or research: (1) is outside the scope of the Council's previously stated policies, goals, or
objectives; and (2) would require more than 4 hours of staff time for a response, the City Manager
may place the item on a future Council Agenda for further direction from the entire Council.
3. Council Members should contact the City Manager as early as possible if they
desire to have any additional written material prior to a City Council meeting. If a Council Member
has questions, needs clarification, or needs additional material, he or she shall advise the City
Manager as early as possible before a City Council meeting so the staff can meet his or her
needs.
4. Council Members may contact the City Attorney at any time and ask questions
and make inquiries. However, individual Council Members may not direct the City Attorney to
perform research or perform legal services without the City Council, as a body, first providing that
direction at a City Council meeting.
Section 2. Except as expressly amended by this Resolution, Council Policy
I
100-03 shall remain in full force and effect.
