AGENDA ITEM NO. 20: This time was set aside to continue the PUBLIC HEARING public hearing which began April 4, 2013 CONTINUATION FOR and allow the Council to receive comments NON-DISCRIMINATION from the public only on modifications to a ORDINANCE proposed Non-Discrimination Ordinance. An ordinance has been prepared for consideration. Mayor Blad reminded the audience that kindness and respect would be expected from all participants. He reminded those in attendance that comments would be limited to discussion regarding only the proposed modifications to the ordinance and if discussion deviated from that topic, the speaker would be dismissed. Kirk Bybee, City Civil Attorney, gave an overview of the proposed ordinance modification. He stated in Section 9.36.060, the modification included the deletion of the sentence relating to mediation provisions. Mr. Bybee explained that because mediation would take place before criminal action occurred, criminal rules would not be in place and the phrase would be unnecessary. REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING 9 APRIL 18, 2013 Mrs. Nye commented that according to her research, if the proposed deletion were to be left as a part of the proposed ordinance, and mediation were to be conducted pursuant to the Idaho Rules of Criminal Procedure, then mediation would be at no cost to either party, as the mediation would be done by sitting or retired judges. As a result, she feels the phrase relating to costs of the mediation services being borne equally by the Complainant and the Defendant becomes unnecessary. Mr. Bybee explained the purpose of the wording relating to mediation would allow the parties involved to resolve their dispute through mediation before becoming involved through the court system. In response to a question from Council, Mr. Bybee stated the deletion of the sentence relating to mediation in the proposed ordinance was stricken from the ordinance and may allow the resolution of a complaint before progressing to the criminal level. He stated that the proposed ordinance, along with other non- discrimination ordinances enacted in four other Idaho cities, was modeled according to the Idaho State Civil Rights Act and criminalizes discrimination conduct. Mr. Bray asked Mr. Bybee what the possible effects could be if the act of discrimination were changed to a civil offense instead of a criminal offense. Mr. Bybee gave an overview of potential consequential differences if a discrimination violation were reduced to an infraction instead of a criminal offense. He stated that a defendant would lose their right to a jury trial and lose their right to have council appointed for them. Mr. Bybee added that the ability to offer victim restitution would be lost if the offense were changed to an infraction. Mrs. Nye feels the ordinances passed in four other Idaho cities should be more of a consideration than the Salt Lake City, Utah ordinance. Mr. Bybee clarified that several ordinances in Idaho, Montana, Oregon and Utah were considered while developing the proposed ordinance and that other ordinances in the state were modeled after the Idaho Civil Rights Act. Discussion followed regarding a defendant’s right to appeal, changes proposed by outside organizations and a citizen’s first amendment rights. REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING 10 APRIL 18, 2013 Mayor Blad announced that several items of written correspondence had been received. Suzi Matsuura, 7554 South 19th Avenue, spoke in favor of the modification. She added that she is in favor of the whole ordinance and feels the proposed deletion of the line regarding mediation provisions would remove undue burden from a victim. Chad Sellers, 2210 Diane, spoke in favor of the modification. He agreed that removal of the line would allow the City to remove the criminal actions. Niki Taysom, Burley Drive, spoke uncommitted to the modification and feels discrimination is wrong. Mayor Blad asked Ms. Taysom to take her seat, as she continued to deviate from the topic at hand. Rick Pongratz, 1138 North Gale Mountain Drive, spoke uncommitted regarding the proposed modification. He supports the proposed ordinance, but is unsure of all the changes that would come along with the proposed modification. Billie Johnson, 151 South 16th Place, spoke uncommitted on the proposed modification. She feels the decision making process should be fair. Mary Frangesh, 172 Fairmont, spoke in opposition to the proposed modification. She feels mediation and confidentiality procedures may not be adequate. Vyonne Jenks, 132 Oakland Avenue, spoke in opposition to the modification and feels the originally proposed ordinance was sufficient. Mr. Bybee stated that constitutional issues are not easy. He reviewed the process and noted rules already in place regarding mediation work well. There being no further public comments, Mayor Blad closed the public hearing. A motion was made by Mrs. Nye, seconded by Mr. Bray, to accept the proposed ordinance, as amended. Mr. Bray suggested an amendment be added to section 9.36.30, to include the words “to willfully commit” at the beginning of sections a, b and c. He feels the additional wording would establish intent. REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING 11 APRIL 18, 2013 Mrs. Nye accepted the amendment to the motion. Mr. Brown stated he has sought the advice from attorneys, civic leaders, religious leaders and respected individuals regarding the proposed ordinance. He respects the opinions that have been shared and feels the decision to enact an ordinance has been a difficult one. Mr. Brown feels it is unfortunate that discrimination occurs and it is important to find an effective balance on all issues. Mr. Cooper feels it is unfortunate that discrimination occurs and he has spent much time and consideration on the issue. He feels if individuals followed the “golden rule”, an ordinance would not be necessary. Mr. Moore stated that when the Council is faced with a tough issue, he often follows his heart when making a decision. He has friends and knows individuals who run local businesses that could be negatively affected by this ordinance. Mr. Moore feels they will not be affected, as these individuals will not discriminate against others. Mr. Bray expressed his appreciation for all individuals who have been a part of the ordinance process. He feels that just like the framers of the Constitution, Councils often revisit ordinances to improve upon them. Mr. Bray believes that because specific protections have been added regarding religion and other issues, the ordinance meets everyone’s needs. Mr. Johnston feels discrimination in any form is wrong. He would like to have an ordinance that provides protections for all citizens. Mr. Johnston feels Pocatello is a good city, and would like an ordinance that has wording that clearly indicates Pocatello is a welcoming community. He thanked the Human Relations Advisory Committee for the work they have done to help form an ordinance and feels the discussions have led to an increased harmony between citizens. Mrs. Nye feels the proposed ordinance is a good ordinance that addresses the rights of citizens and safeguards religious rights. Mayor Blad clarified that the motion was to accept the modification on the ordinance only. Mrs. Nye’s motion was voted upon at this time. Upon roll call, those voting in favor were Nye, Bray, Brown, Cooper, Johnston and Moore.

Upon roll call, those voting in favor were Nye, Moore, Bray, Brown, Cooper and Johnston. Dean Tranmer, City Attorney, read the ordinance by title. Mayor Blad declared the final reading of the ordinance enacting a new section to Pocatello Municipal Code Title 9 Chapter 36, to prohibit discriminatory acts in housing, employment and public accommodations upon sexual orientation and gender identity/expression. Mayor Blad asked “Shall the ordinance pass?” Upon roll call, those voting in favor were Bray, Moore and Nye. Those voting in opposition were Brown, Cooper and Johnston. Due to a tie in voting, Mayor Blad was required to cast the deciding vote. Mayor Blad stated he has spent many hours considering the ordinance, reading written comments and visiting with individuals who are on either side of the issue. Mayor Blad voted in opposition to the motion. The motion failed. Mayor Blad asked that a modified ordinance be introduced to the City Council at a Study Session on May 9, 2013 and that the ordinance be considered by the Council at a Regular City Council meeting on June 6, 2013. He feels the proposed ordinance can be improved upon to bring a divided community together. There being no further business, Mayor Blad adjourned the meeting at 8:13 p.m. APPROVED: BRIAN C.
