Yes, we're

recording.

I

think everyone for coming.

So it looks like we have uh two absences.

We'll have a forum of

years ago.

Um

first item on the agenda is to approve the meeting minutes from last meeting.

Anyone that could make a motion to do

that.

Oh

my goodness.

Thank you.

Sound good.

Any discussions?

All in favor?

Um closed?

Honestly.

No uh no additional reports, madam chair.

Um maybe just two things I would mention for your general awareness.

I think we've talked about this a little bit in the past during election season.

Um sometimes I will get a few more questions that are closer to the purview of this body, which is just kind of dealing

with

general questions of um or candidates, conflict of interest questions, the ethics disclosure form that candidates submit, and they're all um good questions.

Um

they

tend to happen most every uh election cycle a little bit more this time, partly because of um some candidates with a little more significant um business um activity within the within the city again.

That's not unusual and just something for us

to

be aware of and navigate.

Um and I would rather be getting those questions directly and deal with them proactively than um for them to come through a different avenue.

So just that general heads

up

to you on election season, but I would also give you the heads up that um the city organization always plans on essentially a new elected orientation that we do.

Um every time we have an election, and sometimes that involves many new folks.

At times it's involved three, four or five different new elected officials where we're trying to orient them to um the city organization, the different departments, the things that they need to know as newly elected officials.

I mention it because part of my role, my time slot includes talking about the ethics ordinance, gifting laws, open meeting uh dynamics, things like that that again touch on the things that are important to this body, and ideally um we're educating folks enough to for them to not end up with matters before all of you.

So we have that orientation set for second and third week in November.

Um we'll be digging them to that.

Just wanted you to be aware.

Oh good, thank

you.

Now at the open comment period,

there are about 15 minutes allotted.

So

those in attendance wishing to speak, thank you for being 10.

As with all city boards and commission, we welcome public comment.

Please be aware that the board is not able to have an ethical complaint through a verbal comment.

Any complaint against an identified individual must be submitted to the formal complaint process.

Details can be found on the city's website.

If you need guidance, please speak to the executive assistant, the chair, or the city agent.

Would

anybody like to make it?

So

we

have one item

for unfinished business, and we're gonna continue our review of the complaint and we received uh August 17th.

Um I'd like to ask um Michael to remind us of the data privacy stuff that's relevant to this complaint.

What can we say?
