2015-296 (confirming appointment of Ralph Hodges as the Southeast CPAC representative to the TRUE Commission): Council Member Schellenberg requested that the bill be deferred. If Mr. Hodges is present the committee will conduct his interview so that he need not return to another meeting.

 

2015-258 (amending the Ordinance Code to create a new pension benefits package for newly hired police officers and firefighters): Council Member Boyer announced that she had requested that the bill be deferred in Rules since she will be unable to attend the Finance Committee meeting tomorrow to discuss the bill due to an Election Canvassing Board meeting, and she wants to keep the bill in the same cycle in all committees.
