Florida 33402-3x75 VIA FAX: 575-6203 Mr. Paterno, at the meeting of the Village Council where the Charter was reviewed, raised a good point regarding the fact that discretion was involved in determining the number of absenves of a Council member as reflected in Section 2.05 B 4 and 5 of the draft Charter amendment. I believe that in order to avoid any challenge that removal is dependent upon the decision of the Village Council, the language should be amended so as to remove any discretion by the Village Council in deciding whether an absence is excused or nat. Perhaps it is best to delete subsection B 4 in its entirety relating to three consecutive meetings and include only subsection 5 relating to missing six regularly scheduled monthly meetings per year, excluding from that section the por#ions that refer to absences approved by Council_ The proposed language could then read aS follows: B. Forfeiture of Offjce. I1 Councilm~~er shall forfeit hislher office i~ he she: --- - 2, . is convicted of a felony during the term of_office: or zv7uw.jones foster.com OCT-30-2007 02:58PM FAX:5616500465 ID: PAGE:001 R=97% OCT.~0.2447 3;50PM JON:S FOSTER JOHNSTON &STUBBS VO.294 '. 2 Lorie McWilliams October 30, 2007 Page 2 Another matter that has come up subsequent to the meetings of the Charter Review Committee is the language of Section 2.12 relating to Interterence With the Administrative Department. It has been pointed out that the language which sta#es "Except for the purpose of inquiries or investigations under this Charter" is vague and that the language, as proposed, may create some confusion. Perhaps the following would be bet#er language. Except for the purpose of inquiries or investigations authorized by the Vill Council, the Council and its members shall deal with employees solely through the Manager end neither the Council nor its members shall give orders to any such officials ar employees, either publicly or privately." I would appreciate your passing this information on to each of the members of the Charter Review Committee. Ida not know whether the members will agree with my suggestion or not, but I wanted them to be aware of this. If the Chair deems it advisable to call another meeting of the Committee to discuss #his or other matters prior to the workshop meeting on November 7, 2Q07, another meeting may be scheduled. Otherwise, these matters can simply be discussed at the meeting of November 7th, Sincerely, JONES, FOSTER, JOHNSTON &STUBBS, P.A. John C.
