7. UNFINISHED BUSINESS

This is a follow-up to an item that was discussed at the
July 26th meeting. This report provides additional
information regarding warrants for an all-way stop
intersection. Staff is not recommending installation of
stop signs on Village Parkway at Wineberry Way at this
time.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Receive Report.
7.2 Status Report on campaign contribution Limitation Ordinance
Amendment to Change Definition of "Election Period"
In accordance with Council direction, Staff began preparing
a proposed amendment to the Campaign contribution
Limitation Ordinance to provide that $300 contributions
could be received every fiscal year. The city Attorney
concluded that, from a legal standpoint, it would be
preferable to include a dollar limitation tied to an
election, rather than for a fiscal year. If the Council
wishes to prohibit contributions in excess of $300 per
year, that would translate to a $600 limitation per
election for the office of Mayor and a $1,200 limitation
per election for the office of Councilmember.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Provide policy direction regarding
amount of limitation for office of Mayor and office of
Councilmember and direct Staff to schedule a public hearing
for September 27th, at which time the amended ordinance would
be introduced.
8 . NEW BUSINESS

The Federal Communications commission (FCC) has issued

cable television and direct Staff appropriately.
