items to be read second and re-referred, and 1 item requested for emergency
approval on first reading. One bill,

deferred in the Rules Committee earlier in the day. Chairman Shad, the sponsor of the bill,
intends to ask the committee if they wish to take up the bill. The Chairman noted that item #9, Ordinance
2007-1136 amending the General Employee’s Pension Plan, has several pages of
attachments from the Council Auditor at the end of the agenda summarizing the
bill and providing brief pros and cons of the proposed defined contribution
system.

Ordinance 2008-71 approving a settlement agreement between the City and Ikon
