Dieter <br /> First District Re: Bill No. 75-I0 <br /> Henry Davis, Jr. Dear Council Members: <br /> Second District <br /> I respectfully request that Bill No. 75-10 be continued until the February 28th <br /> Third strict twin Common Council meeting, and remain with the Information and Technology <br /> Third District Committee and the Council Rules Committee for review and recommendation. <br /> Ann Puzzello <br /> Fourth District The Council Attorney has informed me that she has had internal discussions with <br /> members of the City Controller's Office, the Legal Department, the Human <br /> David Varner Resources Director and IT on developing city-wide policies for electronic <br /> Fifth District communication devices. Discussions are focusing on reasonable regulations that <br /> would not only address Council Members, but also City Board and Commission <br /> Oliver J. Davis Members, while their particular body is in session. <br /> Sixth District <br /> Al "Buddy" Kirsits Bill No. 75-10 is also sponsored by Council Member Karen L. White, Council <br /> At Large Member Ann Puzzello, and Council Member Timothy A. Rouse. So that the <br /> sponsors and all members of the Council have the opportunity for input, I believe <br /> Timothy A. Rouse that the added time will assist in developing sound and reasonable policies which <br /> At Large address existing and emerging electronic communication devices. Such regulations <br /> will carefully balance a member's right to have access to such devices, with the <br /> Karen L. White members of the public rights under the Indiana Open Door Law and Indiana's <br /> At Large Access to Public Records law. <br /> Thank you for your consideration. <br /> Most since ly, <br /> C - F1i6Yn clerk"S ' ft <br /> Derek D.
