Ordinances and Resolutions

First Reading Emergency Ordinances Referred

An ordinance is a City law written and enacted by City Council. Ordinances govern the actions, responsibilities and tax dollars of residents, businesses, organizations, city departments and visitors in Cleveland. Ordinances can be written and passed to address issues about housing, safety, public services, employment, the City budget and economic development. Many ordinances authorize the City to spend money on contracts and projects that support the mission of the City of Cleveland.

Ordinances are effective 30 days after passage. Emergency ordinances take effect immediately upon the Mayor’s signature or 10 days after passage.

Under the Charter, legislation cannot be passed until it has been read on three separate days, unless this requirement is dispensed with by a two-thirds vote of the Council. This is known as passing legislation “under suspension.” Ordinances may be passed under suspension after either the first or second reading.

If not passed under suspension after the first reading, the legislation is then sent to the appropriate City departments for review.

These ordinances were read for the first time on Wednesday, August 18, 2021, and referred to the appropriate City departments and Council Committees for review.

WHEREAS, this Council recognizes that transparency facilitates increased trust between the City’s Division of Police and the citizens in the community; and

WHEREAS, public trust is necessary for effective law enforcement; and

WHEREAS, this ordinance constitutes an emergency measure providing for the immediate preservation of the public peace, property, health, or safety in that the prompt release of footage from a City recording device of police use of deadly force will further the goals of transparency and earned trust; now, therefore,

BE IT ORDAINED BY THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF CLEVELAND:

Section 1. That the Codified Ordinances are supplemented by enacting new Section 135.13 to read as follows:

Section 135.13 Disclosure of Police Use of Deadly Force Recordings

(a) Definitions. As used in this section:

(1) “City recording device” means a wearable camera system, dashcam, or other device capable of making a video recording that is issued to a police officer for use in the course of the officer’s official duties.

(2) “Dashcam” means a video-recording device installed in a City police vehicle by the City, or a City-authorized party, for the purpose of recording video in and around the vehicle.

(3) “Deadly force” means any action that is likely to cause or does cause death or serious physical harm to any person.

(4) “Extraordinary circumstances” means, but is not limited to, any one of the following: terrorist attack; mass-shooting incident; cyberattack; riot; strike; flooding; disruption of City operations by a natural disaster; disruption of City operations through loss of electrical power or other utility outage, or similar circumstances beyond the City’s control.

(5) “Footage” means that portion of a video recording made by a City recording device that documents an incident.

First Reading Emergency Ordinances Referred Ord. No. 694-2021 Official Proceedings – City Council August 20, 2021 The City Record 82

(6) “Incident” means a police officer’s use of deadly force against a person or use of force resulting in serious physical harm to a person.

(7) “Petition” means a written request for the release of footage made pursuant to this section rather than the Ohio Public Records Act that reasonably describes the incident for which the request was made.

(8) “Petitioner” means an individual who has submitted a petition pursuant to this section.

(9) “Police officer” means any sworn law enforcement agent employed by or volunteering for the Division of Police, Department of Public Safety of the City of Cleveland, including a supervisor or reserve officer, that is engaged in his or her official duties.

(10) “Serious physical harm” means: any physical harm that carries a substantial risk of death; any physical harm that involves some permanent incapacity, whether partial or total, or that involves some temporary substantial incapacity; any physical harm that involves some permanent disfigurement or that involves some temporary, serious disfigurement; or any physical harm that involves acute pain of such duration as to result in substantial suffering or that involves any degree of prolonged or intractable pain.

(11) “Wearable Camera System” means a body worn digital recording device with secured internal memory for storage of recorded video and audio, which operates in two modes, buffering and event, that is issued by the City to a police officer, and that is designed to be worn or otherwise utilized by the police officer in the course of the officer’s duties.

(b) The Director of Public Safety, in consultation with the Chief of Police, shall release footage, redacted as consistent with applicable state and federal laws, within seven (7) days of any incident involving a police officer’s use of deadly force against a person or use of force causing serious physical harm to a person. The released footage shall be from at least three (3) City recording devices or, if the incident is recorded by fewer than three (3) such devices, the released footage shall be from all City recording devices that recorded the incident. The released footage shall begin at least sixty (60) seconds prior to the incident or at the beginning of the recording, whichever is shorter. Footage is released by making it publicly available on the City website.

(c) In addition to the footage released pursuant to division (b) of this section, the Director of Public Safety, in consultation with the Chief of Police, shall release all remaining footage of the incident, redacted as consistent with applicable state and federal laws, within thirty (30) days of the incident. The released footage shall begin at least sixty (60) seconds prior to the incident or at the beginning of

First Reading Emergency Ordinances Referred Ord. No. 694-2021 Official Proceedings – City Council August 20, 2021 The City Record 83

the recording, whichever is shorter. Footage is released by making it publicly available on the City website.

(d) Any person allegedly aggrieved by the failure of the Director of Public Safety and the Chief of Police to release footage as set forth in divisions (b) or (c) of this section may file a written petition with the Director of Law for the release of the footage.

(e) The Director of Public Safety, the Chief of Police and the Director of Law are not required to release footage of an incident when the release is prohibited by court order or some other legal prohibition that requires denying the release of the footage.

A showing of the existence of a court order or other legal prohibition is a complete defense to any action made to compel the release of footage under this section.

(f) The requirement to release footage within the time frames set forth in divisions (b), (c) and (d) of this section does not apply in extraordinary circumstances, during which the release of requested footage shall be within a reasonable time.

(g) If a petitioner is allegedly aggrieved by the failure of the Director of Law to release footage as required under division (d) of this section, the aggrieved petitioner may file an action in mandamus against the Director of Law.

Section 2. That this ordinance is declared to be an emergency measure and, provided it receives the affirmative vote of two-thirds of all the members elected to Council, it shall take effect and be in force immediately upon its passage and approval by the Mayor; otherwise, it shall take effect and be in force from and after the earliest period allowed by law.

DEPARTMENT OF ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

Project: Innovation Square Address: E. 105th St. at Frank Avenue Ward: 6

As part of the development of the Opportunity Corridor and the Innovation Square/New Economy Neighborhood areas around E. 105th Street in the Fairfax neighborhood, Fairfax Renaissance Development Corp. has been leading a collaborative effort with McCormack Baron, a development group headquartered in St. Louis, to develop a residential building located on the west side of E. 105th Street on property largely owned by the City. Fairfax and the developer have formed a joint venture where Fairfax will receive a portion of the management and ownership interest in the property.

The project will consist of 80 units (20 450sf studios, 44 675sf 1BRs, and 161,000sf 2BRs). 56 units (70%) will be market rate and 24 units (30%) will be workforce housing, with eight each priced at 75, 85, and 95% of AMI. Along with the

First Reading Emergency Ordinances Referred Ord. No. 702-2021 Official Proceedings – City Council August 20, 2021 The City Record 104

neighboring development of the Meijer grocery store, this will be the first attempt to develop market-rate and workforce housing at scale outside of the downtown, University Circle and Near West side markets.

The development faces several challenges. First, market rents are not expected to reach the levels that have been reached in the hotter markets of the City and thus cannot subsidize the lower “workforce” rents. Second, because the project is not “affordable”, it is not eligible for LIHTC or a similar subsidy. Third, construction costs continue to increase during the COVID pandemic. Fourth, they have approximately $1,000,000 in site preparation costs as a result of foundations and geotechnical issues.

To assist with this project, the Department has recommended a non-school TIF and a $2,000,000 development loan.

DEPARTMENT OF ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

Project: Blanket Mills Redevelopment Address: 3160 W. 33rd Street Ward: 14

A development team led by Mort Levin (the Levin Group) has been leading the development of the former Blanket Mills building on Fulton Road, on the same plot as the Lin-Omni building near W. 33rd Street. The building is proposed as a mixed- use building that will help to anchor that neighborhood and kickstart some of the implementation efforts of the Ward 14 planning process. The building was originally constructed in 1889 and consists of 113,000 sf over 3 stories.

The first floor of the building will consist of 35,000 sf of commercial space, anchored by the Centers for Families and Children, who will bring 70 jobs to the site, as well as providing key social services for the neighborhood. The top two floors will consist of 60 affordable housing units, which were awarded an allocation from the FHAct50 City allocation of LIHTC in 2019. The project will have 12 1BR units, 42 2BR units, and 6 3BR units. 6 units (2 of each type) will be priced at 30%AMI and the remainder at 60% AMI. They have received an allocation of 60 vouchers from CMHA.

The development faces several challenges. The building is in extremely challenging condition, including a required partial demolition and will require significant work to

Ordinances and Resolutions

First Reading Emergency Ordinances Read in Full and Passed

An ordinance is a City law written and enacted by City Council. Ordinances govern the actions, responsibilities and tax dollars of residents, businesses, organizations, city departments and visitors in Cleveland. Ordinances can be written and passed to address issues about housing, safety, public services, employment, the City budget and economic development. Many ordinances authorize the City to spend money on contracts and projects that support the mission of the City of Cleveland.

Ordinances are effective 30 days after passage. Emergency ordinances take effect immediately upon the Mayor’s signature or 10 days after passage.

Under the Charter, legislation cannot be passed until it has been read on three separate days, unless this requirement is dispensed with by a two-thirds vote of the Council. This is known as passing legislation “under suspension.” Ordinances may be passed under suspension after either the first or second reading.

These ordinances were read for the first time on Wednesday, August 18, 2021, the rules were suspended, and the legislation was passed by an affirmative two-thirds vote of all members elected to Council.

By Initiative Petition

An emergency ordinance authorizing the submission to the electors of the City of Cleveland of an initiative petition proposing to amend the Charter of the City of Cleveland by amending existing Sections 115-1, 115-2, 115-3 and 115-4, and by enacting new Sections 115-5 and 119-1 of the Charter, relating to enabling policing reform by strengthening Civilian Police Review Board oversight, permanently establishing the Community Police Commission, and adopting other reforms.

WHEREAS, this ordinance constitutes an emergency measure providing for the immediate preservation of the public peace, property, health, and safety in that it must be certified to the election authorities immediately in order for the question to appear at a general election to be held on November 2, 2021, and providing for the usual daily operation of a municipal department; now, therefore,

BE IT ORDAINED BY THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF CLEVELAND:

Section 1. That this Council authorizes the submission to the electors of the City of Cleveland at a general election to be held at the usual places of voting in the City of Cleveland on Tuesday, November 2, 2021, of an initiated proposal to amend the Charter of the City of Cleveland by amending existing Sections 115-1, 115-2, 115-3 and 115-4, and by enacting new Sections 115-5 and 119-1, to read as follows:

§ 115-1 Office of Professional Standards

There will be within and report to the Civilian Police Review Board an Office of Professional Standards, consisting of investigators appointed by the Board. The Board may appoint the Office's Administrator, in conformity with the Charter's civil- service provisions. The Office's Administrator may not be a current or former Cleveland police officer or Division of Police employee.

The Office of Professional Standards will not be under the direction and control of the executive head of the police force and the Chief of Police, and will report to the Board. The Chief, police force, and executive head of the police force must provide all assistance that the Board and Office of Professional Standards request to enable the Board and Office to carry out their duties. This includes prompt production of all information and records requested, in no case in more than 30 days.

§ 115-2 Civilian Police Review Board

The Civilian Police Review Board shall consist of nine members who represent Cleveland's diverse communities. The Mayor will appoint five members. Council will appoint four members. The Mayor and Council must fill vacancies within 60 days of

First Reading Emergency Ordinances Read in Full and Passed Ord. No. 650-2021 Official Proceedings – City Council August 20, 2021 The City Record 120

when they arise. No more than one Board member may be a resident of the same police district, unless the City establishes fewer than nine districts. At least two members should be attorneys with experience representing victims of police misconduct or criminally prosecuting police misconduct. At least one Board member should, where reasonably feasible, be between the ages of 18 and 30 at the time of appointment. No Board member may be employed currently as a law-enforcement officer and no member may be a current or former employee of the Cleveland Division of Police. Vacancies during a term will be filled in the same manner as original appointments for the unexpired term. Within 30 days of any Board vacancy, including vacancies caused by the end of a term, the City must post an announcement of any vacancy and a request for applications to fill any vacancy. Members must be chosen from among the applicants.

Board members holding the office as of this Section's effective date may continue in office for the remainder of their terms, and those and previous terms will count toward term limits established in this section. Board members' terms of office will be four years. No member may serve for more than two four-year terms when the second term begins less than four years after the end of the first term. But a person may be eligible for appointment four years after the end date of the second term. Time spent fulfilling an unexpired term of two years or less will not be considered part of the two consecutive terms.

The Mayor may remove any Board member, upon notice and hearing, for malfeasance, misfeasance, nonfeasance, or gross neglect of duty.

All Board members must participate in initial and annual training on topics relevant to Board duties.

Board members will receive compensation as Council must establish.

The Board and its Office of Professional Standards will have its own budget separate from the Department of Public Safety's budget. The Board and its Office of Professional Standards must receive a budget totaling at least 1.0% of the budget allocated to the police force. The Professional Standards Administrator will oversee the budget on behalf of, and with guidance from, the Board.

The Board will designate annually one of its members to serve as chair and one to serve as vice chair. No person will serve more than two consecutive one-year terms in each position, but, except as further provided, may be eligible for appointment two years after the end date of the second term. A person may be eligible to serve in one of the positions for up to two consecutive one-year terms consecutive to service in the other position, but then may not serve in either position for two years after the end date of the term for the second position even if service in the first or second position was less than two years.

The Board shall appoint personnel as its staff as it deems necessary.

First Reading Emergency Ordinances Read in Full and Passed Ord. No. 650-2021 Official Proceedings – City Council August 20, 2021 The City Record 121

§ 115-3 Board's Powers and Duties

The Civilian Police Review Board will receive, cause investigation of, and recommend resolution of complaints filed with it, or on its own complaint based on information that comes to its attention, alleging misconduct by Cleveland police officers or Division of Police employees, when such misconduct is directed toward any person who is not a police officer or Division of Police employee. The misconduct alleged may include, but need not be limited to, the use of excessive or deadly force. The Board will perform such other duties not inconsistent with this Charter's other provisions, as the executive head of the police force may request.

It is not a proper consideration for the Board and its Office of Professional Standards to choose not to investigate particular allegations of police officer or Division of Police employee misconduct based on the fact or belief that another investigative agency, including the Division of Police's Office of Internal Affairs, or that some other non- federal law-enforcement agency, is investigating, or has already investigated and concluded that no misconduct or something less serious than the misconduct a complainant alleged took place. The Board and its Office of Professional Standards must never defer to the Division of Police or outside, non-federal law-enforcement authorities in investigating allegations of police misconduct and must act independently, consistent with their mission of exercising civilian control and accountability over the police force.

To carry out its functions, the Board or any person authorized by it may compel the attendance of witnesses and the production of books, papers, and other evidence, and for that purpose may issue subpoenas or attachments, to be signed by the Board's chair, which will be served and executed by any officer authorized to serve subpoenas and other processes. The Council will provide by ordinance the penalty or penalties for contempt in refusing to obey any such subpoenas or to produce such books, papers, and other evidence. If the Council does not do so, the Board may establish such penalties.

The Board will make rules providing for its procedure and review of complaints.

§ 115-4 Investigation and Disposition of Complaints

Without interference from the Chief of Police or executive head of the police force, and with the full cooperation of both, the Office of Professional Standards must cause, for the Board's benefit, a full and complete investigation to be made of each complaint. The investigation need not be confined to matters set forth in the complaint and may expand based upon facts and allegations uncovered in the investigation. Upon an investigation's completion, the administrator will prepare a report and submit the report to the Board for its review and disposition.

Before recommending action on a complaint or determining that a complaint warrants no action, the Board may hold a hearing, under its rules. Any decision or

First Reading Emergency Ordinances Read in Full and Passed Ord. No. 650-2021 Official Proceedings – City Council August 20, 2021 The City Record 122

deliberation about whether to act or not act on a complaint must take place in an open meeting.

If the Board decides that the facts found in an investigation suggest that the executive head of the police force and Chief of Police should promulgate or amend policies, rules, and regulations, the Board should submit its recommendation and reasoning to the executive head of the police force and Chief, with a copy to the Community Police Commission, and must notify the complainant that it has done so.

If the Board decides that discipline should be imposed on the officers or employees under the Chief of Police's management and control, the Board will submit its fact findings and recommendation to the Chief. The Chief and executive head of the police force must presume to be correct and defer to the Board's fact findings and recommendations, absent affirmative proof by clear-and-convincing evidence that the findings and recommendations are clearly erroneous. Absent such proof, within ten days after receiving the Board's fact findings and recommendation-the Chief or executive head of the police must impose at least the minimum discipline that the Board has recommended.

If the Chief or executive head of the police force believes that clear-and-convincing evidence exists that would justify disregarding or modifying the Board's fact finding and disciplinary recommendations, within ten days after receiving the Board's fact findings and recommendation, the Chief or executive head of the police force must notify the Board in writing of any refusal or lesser, alternative discipline to be imposed, detailing the reasons and providing the Board with the clear-and- convincing evidence justifying the decision. Precedents, patterns or practices, and discipline predating this Section's effective date cannot constitute clear-and- convincing evidence justifying any decision by the Chief or executive head of the police force to impose lesser discipline than what the Board recommends, or no discipline.

If the Board then does not agree with the Chief's or executive head of the police force's refusal or alternative discipline, the Board, notwithstanding any provisions of Section 119 of this Charter to the contrary, may, in its discretion, overrule the Chief or executive head of the police force, and order either of them to discipline the officer or employee, up to and including termination. The Chief or executive head of the police force must then comply. Regardless of whether the Board orders the officer or employee's suspension for ten working days or less, the Board shall forthwith certify in writing the fact, together with the cause of the discipline, to the executive head of the police force, who will proceed as may be required under Charter Section 119, but consistent with this Section.

The Board must promptly notify complainants of the status, progress, and disposition of their complaints. If the Board determines that the complaint warrants no action, the Board shall so notify the complainant. The Board will ensure, through the Department of Law as appropriate, that complainants' viewpoints are heard in any arbitration process following discipline.

First Reading Emergency Ordinances Read in Full and Passed Ord. No. 650-2021 Official Proceedings – City Council August 20, 2021 The City Record 123

Termination will be the presumed discipline for racist, sexist, anti-LGBTQ+, anti- immigrant, national-origin-based, or otherwise bigoted conduct, slurs, or language used in the course and scope of employment, or, if the officer or Division of Police employee's language is on a matter of public concern, where that officer or Division of Police employee's interest in commenting on matters of public concern does not outweigh the City's interests, as an employer, in promoting the efficiency of the public services it performs through its employees. The pertinent considerations for weighing these interests include whether the language (1) impairs discipline by superiors or harmony among co-workers, (2) has a detrimental impact on close working relationships for which personal loyalty and confidence are necessary, (3) impedes the performance of the officer or employee's duties or interferes with the regular operation of the enterprise, or (4) undermines the City or Division of Police's mission.

In assessing the first consideration, City officials must consider the possibility that inaction by the City could be seen as an endorsement of the speech and impair future discipline of similar derogatory statements. In assessing the second consideration, City officials must consider whether the language is reasonably likely to have a detrimental impact on close working relationships within the police force or undermine trust. In assessing the fourth consideration, City officials must consider the need for the City to preserve the appearance of impartiality, the role and responsibilities of the officer or employee, and, when the role is public facing, whether the danger to successful functioning of the Division of Police will increase. This includes making a reasonable prediction about whether the language, when known to the public, would harm the Division of Police's mission; or undermine the community's respect, trust, or perception that the police enforce the law fairly, even- handedly, and without bias.

Notwithstanding the above provisions, consistent with Charter Section 115-5, the Community Police Commission, at its discretion, has the authority to make the final decision for the City about whether to impose officer discipline where it was not imposed, or to increase discipline when the Commission deems it insufficient. The Chief, executive head of the police force, and the Board must notify complainants of their right to seek ultimate review by that Commission.

Nothing in this Section may be interpreted as depriving city employees of due process.

The Chief, the executive head of the police force, the Board, and Community Police Commission must timely and consistently notify complainants about, and afford complainants, the right to be heard in every step of the disciplinary process, without limitation, from investigation, and through hearings, reviews and internal appeals, arbitrations, and court proceedings. Complainants cannot be excluded from being informed about or from being heard during these processes, and have a right to intervene.

First Reading Emergency Ordinances Read in Full and Passed Ord. No. 650-2021 Official Proceedings – City Council August 20, 2021 The City Record 124

The Board, complainants, and any City taxpayer may take legal action to enforce all terms in all Charter sections related to the Board. The Board may opt, if it deems the Director of Law to have a conflict of interest, to engage outside counsel at the Department of Law's expense.

§ 115-5 Community Police Commission

Voter findings. The voters of the City of Cleveland find, based on continuing, serial instances of police misconduct, that there is a need to significantly strengthen civilian oversight of the police force, and to hold the police force more accountable; strengthen the police reform initiated by, but grossly insufficient in, the Consent Decree in United States of America v. City of Cleveland, U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Ohio Case No. 1:15-cv-2046; institutionalize cultural change within the Division of Police; and reform the arbitration process by which unelected arbitrators who do not reflect the values, concerns, or diversity of the community-and who themselves often do not live in the community and therefore do not personally bear the burden of any problematic police practices-routinely undermine police accountability by reducing or reversing disciplinary decisions.

Commission. The Community Police Commission ("Commission") is permanently established as an independent municipal commission, with an executive director nominated by the Commission and appointed by the Mayor.

Commission membership, eligibility, and appointment categories. The Commission will consist of 13 persons broadly representative of the racial, social, economic, and cultural interests of the community, including those of the racial- minority, immigrant/refugee, LGBTQ+, youth, faith, business, and other communities, to reflect the overall demographics of Cleveland residents. At least two Commission members must represent community organizations focused on civil- rights issues. At least one Commission member must be, represent, or be knowledgeable of, as applicable, the issues of those who are limited-English speakers, homeless, or who have mental-illness and substance-abuse disorders; those who have been directly impacted by police violence, or be a family member of a person who has been killed by police; those who have been incarcerated and exonerated where police were involved in the wrongful conviction or incarceration; gun-violence survivors or be a family member of a person killed by gun violence; an attorney with experience representing victims of police misconduct or criminally prosecuting police misconduct. A single Commission member may fulfill more than one of the above categories. Where feasible, the Mayor will seek to appoint at least one member between the age of 18 to 30 at the time of appointment.

With the exception of no more than three police-association representatives, described below, no member may have served within the five years before appointment as a law-enforcement officer, have ever been an employee of the City's Division of Police or Department of Public Safety, or otherwise have been a City employee within the previous year. The Mayor may appoint no more than three representatives of police associations, including racial-or-ethnic-minority police-

First Reading Emergency Ordinances Read in Full and Passed Ord. No. 650-2021 Official Proceedings – City Council August 20, 2021 The City Record 125

labor associations, or these associations' successors recognized by the City. These police-association representatives must have a background relevant to police- community relations and demonstrated connection to their respective associations' membership, and no representative may have a record of police misconduct (whether adjudicated or not), or career records or personal history meriting designation or disclosure under Brady v. United States or Giglio v. United States and their caselaw progeny.

Appointment process and vacancies. The Mayor will appoint 13 members, with the approval of Council by majority vote, for four-year terms, following an open and fair application process.

Three of the members the Mayor appoints will be nominated by Council and, when vacancies arise, the Mayor may designate categories from Subsection (c) above for nomination by Council.

The Mayor must fill Commission vacancies within 60 days of when they occur. At least 30 days before the process begins, the City must solicit recommendations for membership from community organizations who have interest in police oversight, and post applications prominently on the City's website, City Council website, and through local print, television, radio, and digital media. For appointment of the first Commission after this Section's effective date, the Mayor will divide the appointees into two classes. The first class of seven will have four-year terms and, for the first term only, the second class of six will have a two-year term. After that, all classes will have four-year terms so that approximately half of Commission members are appointed every two years. No Commission member may serve more than four, full, four-year terms.

Removal.

Non-police-association-representative members. The Mayor may remove any Commission member for malfeasance, misfeasance, nonfeasance, or gross neglect of duty, but must afford any non-police-association-representative Commission member an opportunity for a public hearing before the Mayor, within 30 days after the Mayor has given such member written charges, with a copy filed with the Clerk of Council. An accused non-police-association-representative member will be permitted to respond to the charges in person or through counsel, and have the right to subpoena and present evidence, including documents and witnesses. Removal by the Mayor will be final unless not later than the third meeting of Council after the removal, Council disapproves the removal by an affirmative, two-thirds (2/3) vote of the members elected to Council. There will be no requirement that there be three readings of a resolution to reject the Mayor's removal of the member.

Police-association-representative members. The Mayor may remove any police-association-representative member with or without cause. Likewise, by a simple majority vote of only non-police-association-representative members, the Commission may remove any police-association-representative member, with or

First Reading Emergency Ordinances Read in Full and Passed Ord. No. 650-2021 Official Proceedings – City Council August 20, 2021 The City Record 126

without cause. Consistent opposition to police accountability and the Commission's mission and duties should cause such removal.

Vacancies. Vacancies during a term will be filled in the same manner as the original agreed selection process for the unexpired term. Within 30 days of any vacancy on the Commission, including vacancies caused by the end of a term, the City will post an announcement of any vacancy and a request for applications, widely disseminating the information. The Mayor must choose from among the applicants without delay.

Chair. The Commission will select its own chair from among its members by a majority vote, using, at its discretion, a run-off process or rank-order voting should there be more than two candidates for the position.

Duties and Authority of the Commission. The Commission will respond to community needs and concerns regarding regulation of the City's police force and community-police relations through duties including, but not limited to, the following:

Serving as the final City authority on whether the discipline of police officers imposed or not imposed by the Chief of Police, executive head of the police force, or Civilian Police Review Board is sufficient, with the discretionary authority, with due process afforded to a subject officer, to order that the Chief and executive head of the police force increase discipline; and to order that they impose discipline where none was imposed. The Commission may, at its discretion, and upon notice, hold evidentiary hearings to review individual officer discipline following any proceedings and decisions by the Chief of Police, executive head of the police force, and, as applicable, the Civilian Police Review Board. Any order by the Commission to increase or impose discipline will be final and the chief and executive head of the police force must follow it.

Ordering the Chief of Police to decrease discipline of police officers only in circumstances in which the Commission determines that the officer is facing retaliation for protected activity or for whistleblowing about misconduct within the Division of Police. With this exception, nothing in this Section will be construed as conferring a right by any officer to appeal that officer's discipline to the Commission.

Interviewing and recommending candidates for police commander and inspector general to the Mayor.

Compelling, through administrative subpoenas signed by the Commission's chair or Executive Director, the attendance of witnesses and the production of evidence, including, but not limited to, from within the City, that the Commission deems necessary for the performance of its duties. The Council may provide by rule the penalty or penalties for contempt in refusing to obey such subpoenas, and the Commission must do so if the Council has not.

not members of criminal-justice agencies under the Ohio Public Records Act or the Ohio Personal Information Systems Act, as they may be amended.

Consistent with federal and state law, protecting from disclosure confidential, non- public records to which the Commission has been provided access.

Full Cooperation by the Chief of Police, Division of Police, and Executive Head of the Police Force Required. The Chief of Police, all Division of Police employees, and the executive head of the police force must fully cooperate with the Commission in performing all of its duties. Failure to do so is a terminable offense and the Commission may seek injunctive relief for failures.

Compensation for Commissioners. The Council must establish annual compensation for Commissioners of no less than $7,200, adjusted annually by the Consumer Price Index, and reimburse reasonable Commission-related business expenses.

Executive Director and Staff. The Commission will nominate its Executive Director to be appointed by the Mayor. The Executive Director will be exempt within the Unclassified Civil Service and may not have ever been a Division of Police employee. The Mayor may only recommend the Executive Director's removal for just cause, subject to confirmation by a vote of 2/3 majority of the Commission. The Commission may also directly initiate removal with or without cause, with a 2/3 majority required for removal. The Executive Director will have at least one assistant and an additional minimum support staff of three classified, non-competitive positions. With support from the Department of Human Resources, the Executive Director will determine appropriate classifications and job descriptions based on operational needs. All such appointments, except one assistant, will be made in conformity with civil-service rules. No Commission employee may have ever been a Division of Police employee.

First Reading Emergency Ordinances Read in Full and Passed Ord. No. 650-2021 Official Proceedings – City Council August 20, 2021 The City Record 130

Duties of the Executive Director. Under the Commission's direction, the Executive Director will have the authority and responsibility to:

Oversee and manage the functions of the Office of the Commission to advance the Commission's mission and perform other public duties as the Commission may prescribe.

Hire, supervise, and discharge employees of the Office of the Commission. Employees of the Office of the Commission will collectively have the requisite credentials, skills, and abilities to help fulfill the Commission's duties set forth in this section.

Execute, administer, modify, and enforce such agreements and instruments as the Executive Director may deem necessary to implement programs and carry out the Commission's duties; apply for grants and donations for Commission programs; and solicit and use volunteer services.

Represent, together with Commissioners, the Commission in providing testimony and expertise to other city departments and offices, commissions, and other organizations regarding issues of constitutional policing.

Create an annual budget and advocate for operational resources. The City will provide additional staff and resources not outlined in this section that it deems sufficient to enable the Commission to perform its duties.

Manage the preparation of the Commission's proposed budget, and submit an annual budget request to the Mayor. The Mayor and Council will appropriate the Office of the Commission's budget in a budget-control level independent of any other City department. The Director of Finance may review the budget request for lawfulness and reasonableness and make recommendations for improvement to the draft budget. No person in the executive branch will exercise discretionary authority to make changes to the proposed budget to which the Commission does not agree. Commissioners and the Executive Director may advocate for resources directly to Council members or the Council during the budget process and throughout the year.

Authorize necessary expenditures, and enter into contracts for professional and other services in accordance with the adopted budget, develop and manage programs, and undertake authorized activities.

Serve as Secretary of the Commission and of any advisory committee or subcommittee the Commission may create.

First Reading Emergency Ordinances Read in Full and Passed Ord. No. 650-2021 Official Proceedings – City Council August 20, 2021 The City Record 131

reliable data on issues in the field of community policing, law enforcement, social justice, and racial justice.

Implement the Commission's decisions and, on the Commission's direction, work in cooperation with other City departments, on improvement of law-enforcement services and police accountability; work to remove inequalities that may be related to minority-group or other status related to law enforcement and related matters; conduct educational activities, institutes, meetings, and prepare reading materials, that will lead to better community-police relations.

Exercise such other and further authority and duties as this Section prescribes.

Budget. The Commission's annual budget may not be less than $1,000,000, adjusted annually under the federally established Consumer Price Index (CPI), unless the Commission itself requests a lower budget. Council must increase the Commission's budget by the greater of the CPI or the percentage of increases in the Division of Police's budget. In addition to the amount above (as it may be adjusted), the Commission will receive a budget for its grantmaking to community-based violence-prevention, restorative-justice, and mediation programs that is at least 0.5% of the amount budgeted for the Division of Police.

Open Meetings and Public Comment. Commission meetings will be open to the public, consistent with the Open Meetings Act. The Commission will afford reasonable opportunity for public comment at its meetings.

This Section Controls. Where conflicts exist, this Charter Section supersedes and controls over any previously adopted provisions in the Charter, Cleveland Codified Ordinances, or collective-bargaining agreements.

Consent Decree modification. Upon the effective date of this Section and other police-reform-related Charter sections amended or adopted with it, the Director of Law will move the U.S. District Court to modify the federal Consent Decree in United States v. City of Cleveland to incorporate the amended and new sections and ensure that the voters' intentions are given full effect. If the Director of Law does not file such a motion within 30 days after this Section is adopted, then any City taxpayer is authorized and has standing to do so without making further demand upon the Director of Law as may otherwise be required by the Charter or Ohio law. Until the Decree is modified to incorporate the amended and new sections, the Commission will prioritize fulfilling duties required under the Decree over the additional duties this Section establishes.

§ 119-1 Discipline of Police.

The Chief of Police will have the exclusive right to discipline, including suspend, demote, or terminate any of the officers or employees who are in the classified service and are under their respective management and control, for incompetence, gross neglect of duty, gross immorality, habitual drunkenness, failure to obey orders given

First Reading Emergency Ordinances Read in Full and Passed Ord. No. 650-2021 Official Proceedings – City Council August 20, 2021 The City Record 132

by the proper authority, malfeasance, misfeasance, nonfeasance, or for any other just and reasonable cause, subject to the higher authority of the Civilian Police Review Board and the Community Police Commission established in the Charter. Before disciplining any officer or employee of the police force, the Chief of Police must ascertain whether a complaint on file with the Civilian Police Review Board relates to the conduct of the officer or employee in question. If so, the Chief of Police must not discipline the officer or employee unless the Civilian Police Review Board concurs with the Chief's decision, in accordance with Section 115-4 of the Charter.

If the Chief of Police suspends an officer or employee under his control for no more than 10 working days, the Chief's decision shall be final, subject to the higher authority of the Civilian Police Review Board and Community Police Commission as specified in the Charter.

If the Chief of Police demotes, terminates, or suspends for more than 10 working days any officer or employee under his control, the Chief must forthwith in writing certify the fact, together with the cause for the suspension, to the director of the department to whom he may be responsible, or if there be no such director then to the Mayor, who within five days from the receipt of such certificate shall, either personally or through a hearing officer appointed by the Director or the Mayor, hold a hearing into the cause of the suspension in accordance with the requirements of due process of law and render judgment. This judgment, if the charge is sustained, may be suspension, reduction in rank, or termination, and such judgment will be final, except as otherwise provided in this Section and subject to the review and higher authority of the Civilian Police Review Board and Community Police Commission specified in the Charter. If a hearing officer is used, the Mayor or the Director of the department to whom the Chief may be responsible, upon receiving the hearing officer's report and recommendations, must promptly review the report and recommendations of the hearing officer and render a decision. The Director or the Mayor will cause to be filed with the Civil Service Commission a copy of the written certification of discipline by the Chief and the cause giving rise to such suspension, the hearing officer's report and recommendations, and the decision of the Mayor or the Director. The Director or a hearing officer in any such hearing shall have the same power to administer oaths and secure the attendance of witnesses and the production of books and papers, as this otherwise Charter confers upon the Mayor, the Council, or a Council committee.

The provisions of this section also apply to the Chief of Police's power to suspend employees and officers of the police force under Section 119 of this Charter.

Section 2. That the forgoing proposed amendment to the Charter, on receiving at least a majority of the votes cast at the November 2, 2021 general election, shall become effective immediately on its adoption.

Section 3. That the Clerk of this Council is authorized to promptly forward a certified copy of this ordinance to the Board of Elections of Cuyahoga County.

First Reading Emergency Ordinances Read in Full and Passed Ord. No. 650-2021 Official Proceedings – City Council August 20, 2021 The City Record 133

Section 4. That the Board of Elections of Cuyahoga County shall cause an appropriate notice to be given of the election to be held on November 2, 2021, on the foregoing amendment to the Charter of this City and otherwise to provide for the election in the manner provided by the general laws of the State of Ohio.

Section 5. That the Clerk of Council is authorized to, not less than thirty days prior to the general election, either mail a copy of the proposed amendment to each elector whose name appears upon the registration books of the last regular or general election held in the City or, pursuant to laws passed by the general assembly notice of the proposed amendments may be given by newspaper advertising.

Section 6. That, for the reasons stated in the preamble hereto, which is made a part hereof, this ordinance shall take effect and be in force immediately upon its passage by the affirmative vote of two-thirds of all the members elected to Council.

Ordinances and Resolutions

First Reading Emergency Resolutions Referred

A resolution is an informal enactment stating a decision or expressing the opinion of Council regarding a particular item of business, an event, issue or person.

Resolutions are effective 30 days after adoption. Emergency resolutions take effect immediately upon the Mayor’s signature or 10 days after adoption.

Under the Charter, legislation cannot be passed until it has been read on three separate days, unless this requirement is dispensed with by a two-thirds vote of the Council. This is known as passing legislation “under suspension.” Ordinances may be passed under suspension after either the first or second reading.

If not adopted under suspension after the first reading, the legislation is then sent to the appropriate City departments for review.

These resolutions were read for the first time on Wednesday, August 18, 2021, and referred to the appropriate City departments and Council Committees for review.

By Council Member: Kelley (by departmental request)

An emergency resolution acknowledging that the City of Cleveland will become a Power A Clean Future Ohio Community and reaffirming the City’s goal to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

WHEREAS, Power a Clean Future Ohio (“PCFO”) is an expansive, diverse coalition engaging with cities and local governments across the state of Ohio to build a clean future for our communities, and empowers local leaders with tools and resources to create carbon reduction plans and implement them in ways that are achievable, measurable, equitable, and economical; and

WHEREAS, steps taken toward carbon emissions also aim to improve community quality of life, build community capital and increase government efficiency, accountability and transparency; and

WHEREAS, local governments have the unique opportunity to achieve both energy use and carbon emission reductions and cost savings through building and facilities management; land use and transportation planning; and through economic and community development; and

WHEREAS, efforts to address energy and climate issues provide an opportunity to move toward energy self-reliance and greater community resiliency and quality of life; provide environmentally healthy and cheaper-to-operate public buildings; encourage new economic development and local jobs; and support local renewable energy production; and

Ordinances and Resolutions

First Reading Emergency Resolutions Read in Full and Adopted

A resolution is an informal enactment stating a decision or expressing the opinion of Council regarding a particular item of business, an event, issue or person.

Resolutions are effective 30 days after adoption. Emergency resolutions take effect immediately upon the Mayor’s signature or 10 days after adoption.

Under the Charter, legislation cannot be passed until it has been read on three separate days, unless this requirement is dispensed with by a two-thirds vote of the Council. This is known as passing legislation “under suspension.” Ordinances may be passed under suspension after either the first or second reading.

These resolutions were read for the first time on Wednesday, August 18, 2021, the rules were suspended, and the legislation was adopted by an affirmative two-thirds vote of all members elected to Council.

Ordinances and Resolutions

Second Reading Emergency Ordinances Passed

An ordinance is a City law written and enacted by City Council. Ordinances govern the actions, responsibilities and tax dollars of residents, businesses, organizations, city departments and visitors in Cleveland. Ordinances can be written and passed to address issues about housing, safety, public services, employment, the City budget and economic development. Many ordinances authorize the City to spend money on contracts and projects that support the mission of the City of Cleveland.

Ordinances are effective 30 days after passage. Emergency ordinances take effect immediately upon the Mayor’s signature or 10 days after passage.

Under the Charter, legislation cannot be passed until it has been read on three separate days, unless this requirement is dispensed with by a two-thirds vote of the Council. This is known as passing legislation “under suspension.” Ordinances may be passed under suspension after either the first or second reading. If not passed under suspension after the first reading, the legislation is then sent to the appropriate City departments for review.

After departmental review, the ordinance is returned to Council for consideration in a public hearing before the appropriate Council Committee(s). Council Members and City departments can recommend changes, or amendments, to the legislation during the hearing process. After the review is complete and any amendments have been made, the legislation is read a second time at a Council meeting. A second reading allows Council Members and the public to hear what changes have been made to the law. Amendments cannot be made after the second reading of the legislation.

These ordinances were read for the second time on Wednesday, August 2021, the rules were suspended, and the legislation was passed by an affirmative two-thirds vote of all members elected to Council.

Ordinances and Resolutions

Second Reading Ordinances Passed

An ordinance is a City law written and enacted by City Council. Ordinances govern the actions, responsibilities and tax dollars of residents, businesses, organizations, city departments and visitors in Cleveland. Ordinances can be written and passed to address issues about housing, safety, public services, employment, the City budget and economic development. Many ordinances authorize the City to spend money on contracts and projects that support the mission of the City of Cleveland.

Ordinances are effective 30 days after passage. Emergency ordinances take effect immediately upon the Mayor’s signature or 10 days after passage.

Typically, legislation cannot be passed until it has been read on three separate days. However, this requirement is dispensed with a two-thirds vote by the Council, placing the legislation “under suspension.” Once under suspension, the legislation can be passed after the second reading.

These ordinances were read for the second time on Wednesday, August 20, 2021, the rules were suspended, and the legislation was passed by an affirmative two-thirds vote of all members elected to Council.

Rule 23. Time Limitation of Speaking. No member shall be allowed to speak for a longer time than 4 minutes at any one time without the permission of Council. No member shall speak more than once on the same legislation until every other member desiring to speak on that legislation shall have had an opportunity to do so. Neither the Mayor nor any director may

Official Proceedings – City Council File. No. 716-2021 August 20, 2021 The City Record 241

speak longer than 4 minutes upon the same motion, ordinance or question without the consent of Council.

Rule 24. Members Called to Order. If any member in speaking or otherwise transgresses the rules of the Council, the President shall call the offending member to order. The member so called to order shall immediately take his seat unless permitted by the President to explain. Any member may, by raising the point of order, call the attention of the President to such transgression. The President, without debate, shall decide the point of order. Every such decision of the President shall be subject to appeal to the Council upon motion with a second.

Rule 25. Right of Appeal. Any member may appeal to the Council from a ruling of the presiding officer. The member making the appeal may briefly state the reason for the same, and the presiding officer may briefly explain the ruling; but there shall be no debate on the appeal and no other member shall participate in the discussion. The presiding officer shall then put the question, “Shall the decision of the chair be sustained?” If a majority of the members present vote yea, the ruling of the chair is sustained; otherwise it is overruled.

Rule 26. Member May Read from Books, etc. Any member while discussing a question, may read from books, papers or documents any matter pertinent to the subject under consideration without asking leave; provided, however, that such reading shall be subject to and included within the time limitation prescribed in Rule 23.

Rule 27. Division of Question. If the question contains two or more divisible propositions, the presiding officer may, and upon request of a member, divide the same; but a motion to strike out a provision and insert a substitute is not divisible.

Rule 28. Personal Privilege. Any member may rise to explain a matter personal to the member, and on stating that it is a matter of personal privilege, the member shall be recognized by the President, but shall not discuss a question or issue in such explanation. Such explanation shall not consume more than 2 minutes of time unless extended by consent of the Council. Matters of personal privilege shall yield only to a motion to recess or adjourn.

Rule 29. No Person, Other Than the Clerk and the Clerk’s Assistants, Shall Be Permitted at the Clerk’s Desk While the Yeas and Nays are Being Taken. No person, other than the Clerk and the Clerk’s assistants, shall be permitted at the Clerk’s desk while the yeas and nays are being taken.

Official Proceedings – City Council File. No. 716-2021 August 20, 2021 The City Record 242

V. MOTIONS

Rule 30. Purpose and Form. Motions shall be used only to expedite the orderly transaction at the business of Council and shall not be substituted for resolutions or ordinances. The form of all motions shall be “I move that” followed by the substance of the motion. No second shall be required for any motion except as specifically provided for in a rule, but upon demand of any member any motion shall be withdrawn by the maker before it has been amended or voted upon. When a motion is made the presiding officer shall state it before any debate shall be in order. All motions that have been entertained by the President of Council shall be entered upon the minutes.

Rule 31. Precedence of Motions. When a question is before the Council no motion shall be entertained except the following:

1. To adjourn. 2. To fix the hour of adjournment. 3. For the previous question. 4. To lay on the table. 5. To postpone to a day certain. 6. To postpone indefinitely. 7. To refer to a committee. 8. To amend.

These motions shall have precedence in the order indicated. The motion to adjourn and the motion for the previous question, shall be put to a vote without debate; the motion to fix the hour of adjournment shall be debatable only as to the time of such adjournment; and all other motions shall be debatable.

Rule 32. The Previous Question. The motion for the previous question shall require a majority vote of all members elected to Council; shall be considered only once; may be renewed after intervening business; shall take precedence over all debatable questions and shall be in order to prevent amendment of questions that are not debatable. When the previous question is moved and seconded by one other member, it shall be put as follows: “Shall the main question be now put?” There shall be no further amendment or debate but pending amendments shall be put in their order before the main question. If the question, “Shall the main question be now put?” be decided in the negative, the main question remains before the Council.

Rule 33. Motion to Lay on the Table. The motion to lay on the table shall dispose finally of the legislation against which it is invoked but a motion to lay a pending amendment to an ordinance or resolution on the table shall

Official Proceedings – City Council File. No. 716-2021 August 20, 2021 The City Record 243

not carry the ordinance or resolution with it. A motion to lay on the table shall require a majority vote of all members elected to Council.

Rule 34. Motion to Postpone to a Day Certain. A motion to postpone to a day certain shall require a majority vote of the members present; shall be subject to reconsideration; may be renewed after intervening business; shall be debatable as to the propriety of the postponement but not upon the merits of the legislation; and may be amended by changing the date. Upon the arrival of the date to which postponed the legislation shall be considered in the regular order of business of that day.

Rule 35. Motion to Postpone Indefinitely. The motion to postpone indefinitely shall have the same effect as a motion to lay on the table, and shall require a majority vote of all members elected to Council. A motion to postpone indefinitely shall not be reconsidered; shall be debatable and shall open the legislation to debate; may be renewed after intervening business and may not be amended or laid on the table, and shall be subject to previous question.

Rule 36. Reconsideration. After the decision of any question, any member who voted with the majority may move for a reconsideration of any action at the same or the next succeeding meeting, provided, however, that a resolution authorizing or relating to any contract may be reconsidered at any time before the final execution thereof. A motion to reconsider shall require a majority vote of all the members elected to Council. After a motion for reconsideration has once been acted upon, no other motion for reconsideration of the same question shall be made without unanimous consent of the members present.

VI. ORDINANCES AND RESOLUTIONS

Note: “The adoption of a resolution is the proper procedure for an informal enactment providing for the disposition of a particular item of business, while the passage of an ordinance is the proper procedure for the enactment of a regulation of a general or permanent nature.” (19 R.C. L. 895; 46 C.J. 519; 29 O.A. 386).

Rule 37. Introduction. Ordinances and resolutions shall be introduced in the Council in electronic, digital, printed or written form, with the name of the member introducing the same endorsed thereon. No ordinance or resolution affecting the zoning regulations or the construction of public improvements within a particular ward shall be introduced in Council in the name of the member of Council from such ward except with that member’s written permission prior to introduction, and when the member’s name is followed by the words “By departmental request”, which sponsorship shall not imply agreement with the purpose of such

Official Proceedings – City Council File. No. 716-2021 August 20, 2021 The City Record 244

legislation. Ordinances submitted by the initiative shall have endorsed on them “Submitted by Initiative Petition”.

Rule 37-1. Preparation of Legislation. In order that adequate time may be given to the preparation of legislation, members of Council shall present requests for legislation in a timely manner, and not later than 5:00 o’clock P.M. on the Friday preceding the meeting at which such legislation is to be introduced for first reading, and not later than 5:00 o’clock P.M. on the Wednesday preceding introduction of legislation for passage under suspension of the rules. Rule 37-2. Request for Legislation. All legislation shall have indicated at the end the date of preparation and the initials of the council member and preparer of the legislation; and all legislation originating in administrative departments shall contain in addition the name of the head of the department or division for whom prepared and the name of the member of Council introducing such legislation shall be followed by the words “By departmental request” in parentheses.

Rule 37-3. Request for Legislation for Passage Under Suspension of the Rules. The Clerk of Council shall not accept a request for legislation for passage on introduction under suspension of the rules unless furnished sufficient copies of such legislation to provide each member of Council, together with a like number of copies of a statement by the Director of the requesting department setting forth the reasons immediate action is required. A request for legislation for passage on introduction under suspension of the rules at the last meeting prior to the summer recess of Council or at the final annual meeting of Council shall not be accepted by the Clerk of Council unless the required statement bears the approval of the President of Council. To the extent that circumstances permit all such legislation shall be considered informally by at least one committee of Council, to which such legislation would otherwise be referred.

Rule 38. Form of Ordinances. The enacting clause of all ordinances shall be “Be it ordained by the Council of the City of Cleveland.” except those submitted by Initiative petition, which shall be “Be it ordained by the people of the City of Cleveland.” All ordinances before introduction shall be submitted electronically or digitally in a format provided by the Clerk. No ordinance or resolution or section thereof shall be revised or amended unless the new ordinance or resolution contains the entire ordinance or resolution, or section revised or amended, and the original ordinance, resolution, section, or sections so amended shall be repealed.

Rule 39. Emergency Ordinances. If any emergency ordinance or resolution fails to receive a two-thirds affirmative vote of all members elected to Council, such measure shall cease to be before the Council as an emergency measure and shall have the standing that a measure would have had if it had not been read as an emergency measure.

Official Proceedings – City Council File. No. 716-2021 August 20, 2021 The City Record 245

Rule 40. Reference to Committee. All ordinances and resolutions shall be read by title on the day when introduced, unless such reading is dispensed with by a two-thirds vote; and unless otherwise ordered by the Council shall be referred by the presiding officer to the appropriate committee or committees, which reference shall be announced immediately by the Clerk. The committee or committees to which the legislation is referred shall, after due consideration and at least one public hearing, propose any amendments with recommendations for approval or disapproval. When so reported, the ordinance or resolution shall, unless otherwise ordered, be read a second time and laid over until the next meeting of the Council, when the same shall be read a third time and a vote taken thereon. The Council shall not act upon any ordinance or resolution except a resolution of condolence or one of an extreme emergency nature, until it has been referred to and reported upon by a committee or committees of Council.

Rule 40-1. Reference Back to Committee. Any pending legislation may, by a vote of a majority of the members elected to Council or by declaration of the Council President without objection, be referred back to any committee to which it was previously referred under these rules, or to any appropriate committee designated in the motion to refer back. When referred back to a committee, such legislation shall have the same standing as it had at the time when referred back.

Rule 41. Reference to More Than One Committee. Whenever any pending matter is referred to more than one committee for consideration and report, the committees may consider the matter in a joint session as a joint committee, if the chairs of the committees concerned consent. The chair of the committee first named shall preside at the joint sessions, and each member of the joint committee shall have one vote for each committee of which he or she is a member composing the joint committee. A majority of the members of each of the separate committees shall constitute a quorum of such committee and the vote shall be taken by roll call of each of the separate committees constituting the joint committee. Its report shall be made in the same manner and under the same rules as reports are made by standing committees.

Rule 41-1. Relieving Committees. Any committee to which an ordinance or resolution has been referred under Rule 40 or referred back under Rule 40-1, may be relieved of further consideration of such legislation by a motion duly made and adopted by a two-thirds vote of all members elected to Council or by the chair of the committee to which the legislation has been referred with the consent of the Council President.

Rule 42. Three Readings. No ordinance or resolution shall be passed until it has been read on three separate days; unless the reading on three separate days has been dispensed with by a two-thirds vote of all members elected

Official Proceedings – City Council File. No. 716-2021 August 20, 2021 The City Record 246

to Council. The final reading shall be in full unless an electronic, digital, written or printed copy of the measure is furnished to each member of the Council prior to the reading. Electronic, digital, or printed copies of all first reading ordinances and resolutions to be introduced for passage and adoption under suspension of the rules and without reading on three separate days shall be furnished to the members prior to a vote being taken on the ordinance or resolution. When it is desired to suspend this and Rule 40 in order to permit the passage of legislation upon introduction the question on the motion for such suspension shall be as follows: “Shall the Charter and statutory provisions and Rule 42 requiring reading on three separate days and Rule 40 requiring reference to committees be dispensed with and Ordinance No. ... (Resolution No. ...) be placed on final passage?” If two-thirds of all the members elected to Council vote yea, the Charter, statutory and rule requirements requiring reading on three separate days and reference to committees shall be suspended. As an exception to the foregoing, resolutions of condolence and congratulatory resolutions shall be read by title only and adopted viva voce or by rising vote.

Rule 42-1. Copies Required for Suspension of Rule 42. No ordinance of a general nature or imposing penalties which has not been referred to a committee of Council, shall be passed under suspension of the rules unless an electronic, digital or written copy of such ordinance is furnished to each member prior to the passage of such ordinance under suspension of Rule 42.

Rule 43. Appropriation Ordinances. Ordinances making appropriations shall be confined to the subject of appropriation. No money shall be appropriated except by ordinance. All ordinances for fixing a tax rate, the appropriation of money, the issuance of bonds, the transfer of money to any fund, or the payment of claims; and all resolutions and ordinances whereby the city shall become liable for the payment of any money, shall be referred without debate to the finance committee for consideration and report; unless this requirement shall be suspended by two-thirds of all the members elected. The vote of each suspension shall be taken by yeas and nays and entered on the record.

Rule 44. Substitute Legislation. Legislation dealing with the same subject matter may be substituted for any pending ordinance or resolution by a majority vote of all the members elected to Council, upon the recommendation of any committee to which such legislation has been referred. Substitute legislation shall be subject to all the provisions of the Charter and rules applying to ordinances on first reading, and the legislation for which such substitute is offered shall be laid upon the table as a final disposition thereof. Before accepting for introduction any substitute legislation, the author of the original legislation shall be given notice of the substitute legislation by the Clerk of Council.

Official Proceedings – City Council File. No. 716-2021 August 20, 2021 The City Record 247

Rule 45. Amendments. It shall be in order to amend an ordinance at any time when not in the hands of a committee; but if amended after its second reading, it shall again be read as the second reading thereof, and laid over for further and final action. A majority vote of all the members elected to Council shall be necessary for the adoption of an amendment to any legislation pending before the Council.

Rule 46. Adoption. All ordinances and resolutions shall require for passage or adoption a majority vote of all the members elected. The vote on their adoption shall be taken by yeas and nays and entered on the records of the meeting except as otherwise provided in these rules.

Rule 47. Signing Ordinances and Resolutions. All ordinances passed and resolutions adopted by Council shall be signed by the President and presented immediately to the Mayor by the Clerk.

Rule 48. Action on Mayor’s Veto. When the Mayor refuses to sign an ordinance or resolution or any part of an ordinance or resolution and returns the ordinance or resolution to the Council with objections, pursuant to Section 37 of the Charter, the Council shall, after at least one week following the meeting at which such vetoed ordinance or resolution is returned, proceed to reconsider the vetoed ordinance or resolution. After the adoption of the motion to reconsider, the question shall be stated as follows: “Shall Ordinance No. (Resolution No.) be passed (or adopted) notwithstanding the veto of the Mayor? Those voting yea vote to override the Mayor’s veto. Those voting nay vote to sustain the Mayor’s veto.” If two-thirds of all the members elected to Council vote yea, such ordinance or resolution vetoed by the Mayor shall take effect without the Mayor’s signature.

VII. ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICERS

Rule 49. Attendance Required. The Mayor and the directors of all departments shall be required to attend the regular and special meetings of Council and shall be provided with seats on the floor of the Council. They shall be required, at any such meeting, to answer such questions relating to the affairs of the city under their respective supervision and control as may be put to them by any member of the Council.

Rule 50. Reports of City Officers. All ordinances, resolutions and communications pertaining to matters that come under the supervision and control of the Mayor may, in addition to being referred to the proper committees, also be referred to the respective administrative officers for recommendation and report. Not later than thirty (30) days after reference to the administrative officer or officers as the case may be each ordinance or resolution referred shall be returned to the Clerk of Council with the

Official Proceedings – City Council File. No. 716-2021 August 20, 2021 The City Record 248

endorsement of each administrative officer’s approval or disapproval of the referred matter. The Clerk of Council shall rigidly enforce this rule.

Street widening or street extensions. 6. Permits for private uses of streets or public property. 7. Determining to proceed with public improvements. 8. Requests for studies or plan preparation. 9. Bond issues for capital improvements. 10. Housing.

A request for an additional thirty (30) day period for further consideration may be granted by the President of Council if the application for such extension is submitted to the President before the expiration of the thirty (30) day period allowed by Section 76-3 of the Charter. No further extension of time shall be allowed except upon motion of a member of Council adopted by a majority vote of all the members present. Such request shall be filed with the Clerk of Council.

Rule 52. Mutilation of Legislation. No alteration, change, erasure or mark shall be made upon any piece of legislation by any person except the Clerk of Council and then only pursuant to an amendment thereto made by Council pursuant to Rule 45. Nothing shall be physically attached to any piece of legislation after introduction except the fiscal certificate required by Section 106 of the Charter nor shall any endorsement appear upon any legislation except that of the director of the requesting department or office. Pertinent data or reports may be filed with legislation.

VIII. COUNCIL CHAMBER

Rule 53. Use of Council Chamber. The Council Chamber shall be used only for meetings of the Council or Council committees, except where the Council by vote authorizes its use by persons other than city officials. The Clerk, with the written approval of the President of Council, may permit other public officials to use the Council Chamber on public business, when not in use by the Council or committees.

Rule 54. Privileges of Floor. No person except members of the Council, designated Council staff, officers named in the rules, reporters and persons invited by the President of Council or by vote of the Council shall
