Councilmember Musgrove aye Councilmember Specht aye Councilmember Riley aye Councilmember Howell aye Councilmember Woestehoff aye Councilmember Heineman aye Mayor Kuzma aye Motion carried. 7.03 Approve Updated Policy Relating to Non-programmed Activity as part of the Summer Concert Series City Administrator Hagen stated Councilmember Musgrove asked to pull this item from the Consent agenda because of concern about title wording. Councilmember Musgrove noted the policy is stated as more of a resolution. She read “a policy to preserve leisure and quality of experience for park patrons.” She thought it needs to include the Draw for the summer concert series if this going to be a policy for the park series as stated in the first “whereas.” She stated secondly, the policy they had in the first case on the grant awning is more of the policy framework and format that has information on, and just to state that policy has a program eligibility, application, work completion, and distribution process. She stated all of those things were delineated out. She would like to see this policy in a Work Session. She stated she thought it could be done quickly, but wanted to frame the policy and bring it up with all of the processes in it. She thought this resolution was missing that. Mayor Kuzma asked for more clarification from Councilmember Musgrove. Councilmember Musgrove replied this policy says there are certain things that can and can’t be done at certain events. She stated this event calls out specifically the Draw and there is no process for application if someone wanted to, there is no process for where a resident may find out who was seeking to participate in the Draw concerts. She stated it doesn’t call out the process for sponsoring an event such as where to go, the types of sponsorships, and how that would be connected to the Draw events. She noted the process is stated generically instead of specifically. She gave the example from the awning policy that was attached to the previous case. Councilmember Woestehoff commented he thought he understood what Councilmember Musgrove is trying to say. He asked if it was correct that she was addressing the structure of the actual policy rather than the content of it. He also asked if that was in terms of understanding and in terms of how people can sponsor and those sorts of things. He agreed that it reads more like a resolution instead of a policy and asked if she was referring to the structure of the document, the content, or both. Councilmember Musgrove replied a little bit of both. She added it definitely is a resolution on a policy that isn’t there. She stated they weren’t given a policy in the case but were referred to this City Council / July 26, 2022 Page 6 of 9
