Point of order? What is O-20-023.
Alderman Dowd

Alderman Lopez

NEW BUSINESS — ORDINANCES - None
President Wilshire
Without objection, would suspend the rules to accept a communication placed on our desk this evening
from Larry Budreau, H.R. Director, regarding UAW Professional Work Schedule & Pay Practices.

That we were going to suspend the rules, get a second reading and pass this so he could fulfill wnat he
asked to do at the beginning of the meeting. So | don’t think there was any ambiguity as to what we were
trying to do with this Ordinance.
President Wilshire
The motion on the floor is for final passage of Resolution 20-020.

If we need more, I’m sure the Mayor could write us a check for it. | just want to make sure that this
$50,000.00; | guess | have a little anxiety that it’s not going to be enough, especially hearing all the things
that you were talking about.
Mayor Donchess
Well if we need more, we will have to come up with another place, for example, you know we haven't had a
tough winter. So there are various places where we probably would have money, that we could potentially
possibly use.

President Wilshire
No, | suspended the rules for a second reading of O-22 this evening. That's the money that the Mayor had
asked for at the beginning of the meeting, the supplies for the Coronavirus and all the additional materials
that the City is going to need.
Alderman Lopez
OK | thought 23 was for that.
President Wilshire
That’s coming.
Alderman Lopez
Can | just object then so we vote?
President Wilshire
Can you object to what?

ON THE QUESTION
Alderman Klee
Board of Aldermen 3-10-2020 Page 20
unless there’s a need. I’m under the impression that’s a no, an overriding idea. But | don’t see a problem, |
mean, | do think it should be somewhere a little bit different in the code because | don’t understand how
putting it in with Legislative assistant makes it easy to reference. | looked, it’s 10.2 right, Section Five, 10.2
and that references legislative assistant | think. So | think 15 or 14 would make more sense. That's all.
Alderman Clemons
You’d have to talk to Corporation Counsel.
Board of Aldermen 3-10-2020 Page 19
| Know when | ran for Alderman and | told people | was running for Alderman, they looked at me quizzically,
not knowing exactly what that job was. The way | explained it was, “it’s really like being a member of a City
Council’. So | would support efforts to move us in that direction. | know that we can’t do it by ourselves, that
we have to get the Legislature to assist us in moving in that direction, but | would support that. But | will
also support this Ordinance.
Alderman Harriott-Gathright
