Council held a joint meeting with the Ethics Commission during its work session. Councilmember Humphrey wanted to know if the Ethics Commission can work as an advisory board. He was told by the City Attorney that they cannot and that the City Attorney gives the opinions. Conflict of interest as it pertains to the Ethics Ordinance was discussed. Council agreed it is hard to define. Barney Knight, City Attorney, said his office needs guidelines as to the interpretation of the ordinance because they are having to spend an awful lot of time on it. Mayor Cooksey said the guidelines should be worked out and adopted by resolution. East 6th Street safety issues was discussed next with a group of East 6th Street merchants. Under scrutiny were the idea of a city-wide juvenile curfew and the open container law. Minority and Women Owned Business Enterprise Procurement Ordinance was discussed next.
