In anticipation of a large crowd, Committee Chair Davis recessed the meeting <br />at 6:31 p.m. and reconvened in the Large Council Chambers at 6:35 p.m. He opened the <br />meeting explaining that the committee did not reach a quorum in light of two (2) <br />members being out of town, John Voorde and Gavin Ferlic. Committee Chair Davis also <br />gave a brief overview of the agenda and asked Council Attorney Kathleen Cekanski - <br />Farrand to explain the procedural context related to the continuance of Bill No. 41 -16. <br />Council Attorney Kathleen Cekanski - Farrand explained that the legal description and <br />addresses associated with the original bill on file with the City Clerk were amended in the <br />Area Plan Commission. In light of the changes, the Council will need to give proper <br />notice to the general public regarding a substitute bill. Thus, the Council must accept the <br />substitute bill by proper motion at the next full council meeting and readvertise the new <br />title before public hearing can be held on the matter. <br />Councilmember Scott asked Council Attorney to clarify whether or not the bill needs to <br />be advertised correctly before Council can hear the substitute bill. <br />Kathleen Cekanski - Farrand responded the bill was properly advertised by the Area Plan <br />Commission, but the Council must give proper notice to the public according to state law, <br />specifically, Title 5 of the Indiana Code. The Council must accept the substitute and give <br />forty-eight (48) hour notice of public hearing on the bill. Since the substitute bill was <br />455 County -City Building • 227 W.
