0:04Welcome to the October 27th, 2025, Twalton City Council meeting.
0:10We're gonna start with the Pledge of Allegiance.
0:12Um read recited by Councilor Reyes, so please stand to Ryan or your mark.
0:24I mean the United States of America.
0:29And to the Republic for which is one nation on indivisible liberty and justice overall.
0:45Next we have announcements.
0:47Um first is our proclamation declaring October 23rd to 31st, 2025, Red Ribbon Week in the city of Twalton, and I believe we have a little presentation.
1:01Hello, my name is Cosima Slider.
1:03I'm a junior at Twalton and the vice president of Leap Youth Alliance.
1:09I'm a uh sophomore at Twalton High School, and I'm the secretary here at LEAP.
1:13Greetings, Twalton, City Council President Pratt, and Twalton City Councilors and staff.
1:20Um the Leap Youth Alliance is honored to get to speak to this body to share about Red Ribbon Week, our goals for the 2025 through 2026 school year, and how you can engage with us.
1:30The annual Red Ribbon Week remember it's it's coming up October 21st or October 23rd through the 31st.
1:38We are raising awareness in a variety of ways through our elementary school trunk retreats, um, speaking to you and um to our Twalton or the Tiger Twalton School District, social media, family partnership nights, and in school activities.
1:53Our most exciting is of course the tabling with stud partners at the Tualton vs Tiger game on the 30th.
2:01Recently we attended a statewide youth uh prevention conference, and we are energized to bring those skills back to Twalton.
2:08We just completed our Twalton parent survey um to survey uh different prevention strategies as well as um so that we can better understand the gap in knowledge and perception around alcohol and substance use.
2:21We're also doing a student survey in our high school and I believe in other schools in the Twalton area.
2:28We will use this information to form positive social norms um and messages to address the gaps so we can increase knowledge with the hope that as people learn that more people are not using a substance, they will not either.
2:42One of our goals is to work with our middle school and local elementary schools to do a poster or coloring campaign around what healthy behaviors look like.
2:50We are excited to work with uh city partners, Twalton Together and other experts in prevention, such as the Oregon National Guards Counter Drug Division to do this.
2:59Please reach out to us for more information if you are interested in learning more or being part of the planning, implementation, judging, or celebration process.
3:07LEAP is doing our annual green greenery fundraiser.
3:10Proceeds will go towards the spring prevention summit happening in Salem, Oregon, in partnership with the Northwest Spark, an Oregon Youth Prevention Advisory Board, Willamette University, the Oregon Coalition of Prevention Professionals, and uh the Oregon Alcohol and Drug Policy Commission.
3:26With the passage of HB3321 and other exciting prevention efforts in Oregon, we are ready to advocate and support ways for our peers to live to their full potential, alcohol and substance free.
3:36You can find it on Towalton Together's uh website.

4:28Um and you can find this on the Twalton Together website.
4:31So if you go there, that should be the very first thing that pops up.
4:34And then we also have our bottle drop fundraiser, so you'll notice you'll see a blue bag in there.
4:40Um and so we're partnering with Bottle Drop um this fall.

4:47So for every dollar that we make through the cans that you fill up, um, through the bags that you fill up with cans, they will match it.
5:00And we will be able to get those funds to help out with the work that we're doing, our trunk or treats, the community events that we collab with with Stud, the Tiger equivalent of Leap.
5:09We're open for questions now or comments.
5:13I I wanted to make a statement because when we were at the League of Oregon Cities, the mayor and I found out about that bottle drop program.

15:00It's my pleasure to introduce to you the newest member of the finance department tonight, Julie Zarinskis.
15:06Julie is our new accountant and started here in Twaleton on September 15th.
15:11She came on a bit of a challenging time as we're kind of knee deep in the middle of our audit prep work.
15:18And for an accountant to start at that time, it can be a little bit challenging as you got to get up to speed on kind of where we're at and where we're going.
15:24So but she's done a great job and she's really hit the ground running.
15:28Julie comes to us from the city of Holland, Michigan, and made the move to the Portland area at the beginning of September.
15:35She's been here almost two months now.
15:38And although she's been here two months, her stuff, her moving truck just got here yesterday with all of her personal belongings.
15:48So she's very excited to have all of her stuff here in Twaliton now.
15:52Um Julie brings with her extensive knowledge and skills in the accounting world that we're very excited to have join our team.
15:58She worked her way up from a municipal accountant one with the city of Holland to become the assistant finance director.
16:06Um she has significant experience with capital project accounting, and we believe will be a valuable addition to our team.
16:14Prior to her role with Holland, she worked as a pharmacy tech at a local hospital in Michigan, as well as worked at a local CPA firm.
16:25As her accountant, Julie will be heavily involved in the day-to-day accounting work, including cash management, preparing bank reconciliations, um, and maintaining the general ledger.
16:36Additionally, she will also be involved in the annual year in close, capital asset accounting, as well as working with the external auditors and coordinating the audit work.
16:44Um Julie has been a great addition to our team, and we're very excited to um join her and welcome her to the city of Twalton.
16:54And um, same question.
16:55Do you have any comments you'd like to make right now?
16:58Um I'm just really excited to be here.
17:01Um I've always wanted to move to Oregon, and I was so happy to find a city that was I felt like it was pretty similar to Holland.
17:10Um size-wise and employee size.
17:13So I'm just really excited.
17:14So we're glad to have you and uh watch out for Don and his since you can involve you.

20:30I have a motion and a second.
20:33All in favor say aye.
20:41Now we're on to public hearings.
20:43Um, which we will be considering ordinance number 1453-25, um, amending building codes.
20:51This public hearing for the city council will consider ordinance number 1453 25, amending chapter 4-01, building codes of the 12th and municipal code to adopt the state of Oregon Building Codes by reference.
21:04The hearing will be conducted as follows.
21:07First, the public hearing will be open to city staff who will make a presentation.
21:12Next, the council will hear from members of the public who wish to testify in favor of the ordinance, followed by members of the public who wish to testify against the ordinance, followed by anyone else who wishes to testify.
21:24Upon conclusion of public testimony, individual counselors may ask questions of city staff and any person who provided testimony.
21:33After that, council questions, the council will close the public portion of the hearing to consider the resolution.
21:41Upon conclusion of deliberations, the council consider whether or not to adopt a resolution number 1453-25.
21:50At this time, does any member of the council wish to abstain from participation in the hearing?
21:55See none, we'll move on.
21:58The um city council will now open the public hearing with a presentation by staff, and I already see Samantha N'Qula.
22:06Hi, good evening, uh Council President Pratt and Councillors.
22:09I'm Aquila Herdravich, the community development director, and Samantha Vandegrift is our building official.
22:16And we don't have a PowerPoint presentation for you tonight.
22:22The ordinance uh proposed changes are fairly straightforward, and we thought we could just kind of talk through them.
22:30So I'll turn it over to Sam and she can talk to you about the proposed ordinance.
22:38Um Samantha, um I've been here maybe once before to meet all of you before.
22:43So the code that you're looking at tonight addresses the building codes that are adopted by the state.
22:53Our code cycles are three-year cycles.
22:56We uh adopt a new code every three years.
22:59They are um commercial and residential are alternated in those different years, and the way we currently have the code set up, we have to come back to you every time we adopt one of those codes to update the year because we have it noted in the code section to for that specific year.
23:17Um, the other codes are as needed, so they are not on a specific code cycle, so we come back whenever those codes are adopted to update that year.
23:27Um, if we update the code as we've um proposed to you, uh that the uh we will take that year out and we'll put point specifically to that OAR, and then we will not have to come back to you.
23:41It will save staff time, it will save your time, uh, and we will just point to that OAR instead of having that code year in that in the wording.
23:52Um by updating this code language, we do save staff time.
23:56The code language in the OAR also specifically addresses the code most current version, the adopted um the code version, the phase in period of the code, and then when it actually becomes effective because each code cycle adopts October 1st, has a six month phase in cycle, and then becomes effective effective April 1st.
24:24And the OAR addresses that where our code is actually not addressed.
24:28That so it will actually be more specific and keep us more current current up into the code cycles that we're in.
24:38Well, first I have to ask if there's anybody from the public, which we don't have anybody in the room.
24:43Um then I'm asking Nicole if there's anybody online.
24:46We don't have that, so we get to move forward.
24:48Now, council, does anyone have questions for Aquila or Samantha?
24:55If there are no further questions, we will close the public hearing.
25:00And then anybody want to discuss this matter?
25:04Okay, then this is an ordinance we have to have first, second reading, and then the vote.
25:10So I'd love to have a motion for that.
25:15Um I'll make a motion um to uh for first reading by title only of ordering ordinance number one for 53-25 amending chapter 4-01 building codes of the Tualeton municipal code to adopt state of Oregon building codes by reference.
25:40Okay, I have a motion and a second.
25:42Um do I have to go by person each person?
25:45Okay, so we'll start here.
25:58Ordinance number one four five three-25, an ordinance amending chapter four-zero one building codes of the Tualton Municipal Code to adopt state of Oregon building codes by reference.
26:12Um that we've gone through that.
26:15So how about for a second reading?
26:17Um I make a motion for um second reading by title only for ordinance number one four five three-25, amending chapter 4-01 building codes of the Twilight and Municipal Code to adopt state of Oregon building codes by reference.
26:37I have a motion and second for second reading by title only of this ordinance.
26:40I'll start with Counselor Reyes.
26:50Ordinance number one four five three-25, an ordinance amending chapter four-zero one building codes of the Tualton Municipal Code to adopt state of Oregon building codes by reference.
27:10Um I make a motion to adopt ordinance number one four five three-25 amending chapter 4-01 building codes of the Tualeton Municipal Code to adopt state of Oregon building codes by reference.
27:31I'll start with Councilor Gonzalez.
27:38And I'm an I also motion's adopted.
27:54Now we're on to general business.
27:57Um first is consideration of resolution number 5924-25, adopting the City of Tualeton Food Beverage and Apparel Policy for Elected and Appointed City Public Officials.
28:10Thank you, Council President Inez.
28:14Uh uh Council President and members of Council, Kevin McConnell, City Attorney.
28:19And this is the most exciting agenda item of the night.
28:21Uh long time coming, as you're aware, uh, there was a May 2025 Oregon Government Ethics Commission advisory opinion that for our purposes here work to prohibit you as elected officials from uh accepting food and beverage paid for by the city as part of your city public meetings.
28:40That commission advisory opinion uh had a broader scope there.
28:44It really prohibits uh not only elected public officials but uh your appointed board members and commission members from accepting uh food at city council or board of commission meetings, uh partaking in food or beverage or accepting other items of value, uh particularly at uh city events like our holiday breakfast that the city puts on technically, accepting a breakfast at the holiday breakfast uh would technically may uh potentially violate the per ethics laws that prohibited use of office statute.
29:18Um so we tried to find some workarounds, and that's not only me but of several members uh of the Oregon City Attorneys Association, every city uh pretty much has had to deal with this because the rule is under the commission advisory opinion.
29:34If there is no formal policy or contract in place that allows you to accept food and beverage or anything else of value that city paid for, you cannot do so.
29:46And how normally city councils and you have done in the past, and you've done it at least twice before, and uh that's reflected in your council rules as the city council has adopted a resolution uh amending its official compensation package and what you have done, you've uh amended it to accept a 750 dollar technology stipend.
30:07Uh there was a resolution to amend your official compensation package to uh get a 20 top $20 credit on your water bill.
30:15Now the problem with that is when you do that, uh a council can certainly do that, but there has to be an intervening election uh for each council position before that counselor that's holding that position could take advantage of uh that additional compensation.
30:33Doesn't really work if we're trying to get uh have council meals provided uh for board commission members, uh elected public officials, and take care of the city event issue.
30:45So doing investigations and and talking with the Oregon Government Ethics Commission.
30:51There's another way to do it besides this official process of a resolution and amending your official compensation package, and it's what the Oregon Government Ethics Commission itself does they uh if budget guidance, so there could be a a policy in place that would allow for the expenditures of funds in that named certain way.
31:13So that's what the uh the Oregon Government Ethics Commission relies on a Department of Administrative Services food.
31:20I'm gonna call it a food and beverage policy.
31:22That's what this is based on what you see before you today.
31:25This uh food beverage and apparel policy for city appointed and elected public officials.
31:31You are not officially amending your official compensation packages.
31:35What you're doing, this is a complement to the financial policies manual, uh specifically your expenditure policy.
31:42Uh it does a complement to this, and it's directing uh it's authorizing the city manager within their discretion to authorize the expenditure of funds and a lawfully adopted budget for the provision of food, beverage, and apparels and apparel as stated in the policy before you within the uh lawful parameters of budget law, and that expenditure policy and the financial policies manual, it requires the city to ensure expenditures comply with legally adopted budgets.
32:14Uh, I do understand you have line items specifically for council apparel, uh council meals, and so all this does is this is a policy that applies to the city manager uh to expend uh funds that are lawfully adopted under our budget for the provision of food and beverage consistent with the terms in this uh policy that you see before you today.
32:37And essentially what that what that allows for is the city manager can provide food and beverage and apparel uh stated in this policy, so food and beverage, city council meetings, board and commission meetings, also for city events, and we've is including but not limited to some of the events that are stated in this policy.
32:56It's not just those, it's things like that, but it's within the manager's discretion.
33:00You are not adding anything to your official compensation package, uh, therefore we don't have to go through that resolution process and wait for an intervening election, and also it has the benefit uh you don't have to worry about a potential adverse tax implications because it's just budget guidance and it doesn't really it's not really your decision.
33:20And I will stop there and uh take any questions.
33:24Any questions or comments?
33:26Um I have a comment.
33:29I I think um I want to thank you for your work to find this workaround because it's pretty insightful.
33:34I mean, I know it wasn't your idea ultimately, but you did the work to find this.
33:38I I was part of this.
33:40I'll have to definitely credit one of your former city attorneys, Chad Jacobs, who had that conversation with the uh Oregon Government Ethics Commission director, and my understanding from Chad is that it was casually mentioned as a workaround, and that was the workaround that I think a lot of cities are able to use, and especially it works in this city very well because you already have a financial policies manual.
34:07As you're aware, you just recently amended that financial policies manual separate just a few months ago, and this just works to complement that and it's consistent uh with the with the policies that are contained within that manual.
34:28Oh, Councilor Gonzalez.
34:31Uh I make a motion to adopt resolution number 5924-25, adopting the city of Tualetans food, beverage and apparel policy for elected and appointed city public officials.
34:46Okay, I have a motion and a second to adopt this resolution.
34:50Um, councillor Sacco, how do you vote?
34:57I and I vote I also.
35:00We are passed that resolution.
35:03Now we have an ordinance to consider.
35:061452-25 imposing a 0.3% privilege tax on Portland General Electric Company.
35:13We had a motion and all the readings for this.
35:28I need a motion and sorry.
35:30I'll make a motion to adopt ordinance number one for five two-25 imposing a 0.3% privilege tax on Portland General Electric Company.
35:45Okay, I have a motion and a second for this ordinance.
35:59And I vote aye also.
36:01So the ordinance is passed.
36:04We had no items removed from consent agenda.
36:07So now we're up to council communications.
36:09Did anybody have any additional communications tonight?
36:15So we've had some inquiries, and I know there have been some concerns about ICE in Wilsonville and other communities near us.
36:26So I I just wanted to um remind or inform everybody that back in May of 2017, a resolution number 5039 5319-17 was passed, declaring the city of Tualatin an inclusive city.
36:44And generally, I'm just gonna read the resolve by the city council.
36:49It just says that we can we declare the city of Tualeton an inclusive city as a statement from unity in our community that embraces celebrates and welcomes its immigrant and refugee residents and recognizes their contributions to the collective prosperity of all residents of the city of Tualaton.
37:08Section two, we declare the city of Tualaton adheres to the Oregon Revised Statute 181A20, which prohibits any law enforcement agency in the state of Oregon from using any resources, money, equipment, or personnel for the purpose of detecting or apprehending persons whose only violation is law that they are persons of foreign citizenship, president in the United States in violation of federal immigration laws, and section three.
