Commissioner Bradford stated everyone received several emails from resident Doug MacDonald regarding how public records requests are handled and clarification needs to be provided or a response provided to him. She stated she will bring up needing clarification between decisions made at a workshop compared to at a Regular Commission Meeting. Her problem is that she asked for clarification to the City Manager's email that she sent out and she was told "read it, please defer to the minutes below." City Attorney Segal-George replied that in the Commission's policies and procedures the difference between meetings is defined. If the question is can the Commission take a vote in a workshop then the answer is no the Commission can only provide direction.
