KALISPELL CITY COUNCIL Agenda August 4, I997 REVIEW/CONFIRM COUNCIL APPOINTMENT -REQUESTED TO BE PLACED ON AGENDA BY COUNCIL MEMBER ATKINSON Due to perceived confusion about the process and voting actions at the last Council meeting, there may be need to clarify the process and outcome of the voting. SWEAR IN COUNCILPERSON AGENDA APPROVAL AGENDA ITEM 1 - CONSENT AGENDA APPROVAL A. Council Minutes - Regular Meeting July 21, 1997 B. Approval of Claims per Payables Register July 21, 1997 Council Meeting -Ward III Council Position Rauthe-Glen do you need to explain anything to us? Neier-There is a handout that you received tonight. Originally the Council in the past, has voted for replacement council people by secret ballot. A couple councilman asked me about that. We found that in February 1996 we amended the city ordinance discussing the election of council president. We amended that from a secret ballot to a viva voce or voice vote. I also looked at the State law 7-5-4121, which says under Conduct of Business, the voting on the election or appointment of any officer must be viva voce or voice vote. The Council may want to do it differently, I spoke with a parliamentarian in Kinnewick Washington , they have the clerk read the role of the candidates for that office and have the council vote on them individually by voice vote. Rauthe-So everybody understands that this will be by what Glen's research shows, this will be a voice vote and it appears that your recommendation is taking one name, vote on that name by voice vote and proceed on to the next name until such time we get a majority. Glen -Yes, the first one to get 5 is the new councilperson. I think you are probably going to eliminate some in the early voting some because obviously you can't vote for more than one. So some of the possible candidates will be eliminated. Rauthe-You are suggesting then that if a candidate gets 5 and another gets less than 3 that candidate will not be voted on again. Neier-It could be brought back up but the first one to get 5. Rauthe-So no candidate is out at any given time? Neier-No Nystul-Just procedurally, so Debbie is going to read a name and then Rauthe-We'll say aye or nay or aye or no. Collins -Can't we just raise our hand? Rauthe-He said voice vote with an aye or a no. Nystul-So the first round all 5 will be in and so the first round we can only vote once. O.k. Neier-the names are in alphabetical order. Jerry Begg With a roll call vote Larson, Nystul, Atkinson, Collins, Kennedy and Rauthe voted against and Donahue and Haarr voted in favor. John Graves With a roll call vote Larson, Nystul, Collins, Donahue, Haarr and Rauthe voted in favor and Atkinson and Kennedy voted against. Rauthe-It is a moot point to go any further, congratulations John!
