UNANIMOUS APPROVAL. FORWARD TO JUNE 17 REGULAR COUNCIL CONSENT
AGENDA.
C. Council Policy on Electronic Devices
Committee members reviewed the draft Administrative Policy on the Business Use Cellular Program and
discussed its applicability to the development of a Council Policy on Electronic Devices. It was determined
that some content from the Administrative Policy will be useful (such as the information on public records
responsibilities and security /safety), but the Council Policy should be written to cover multiple types of
devices (i.e. phones, laptops, tablets), and consider that the definition of "business use" is different for an
elected official than for a staff member. Committee members also discussed the logistics of keeping
campaign business separate from city business on an electronic device.
Staff indicated that employee agreement forms are being developed to accompany the Administrative
Policy.
Councilmember Robertson will work with the Council Analyst on developing a draft policy based on the
discussion and it will be brought to the Committee at a future date.
DISCUSSION ONLY.
III. MISCELLANEOUS
Councilmember Robertson reminded Committee members to keep the Council Analyst apprised of any
summer vacation plans they may have.
Meeting adjourned at 6:01 p.m.
