Represented the HPC in revisiting its request for Executive Director's Salary Amendment (in-line transfer). Commissioner Gelfman in attendence with Executive Director Feasel. Since our request was listed under general Miscellaneous Matters, I began by asking for clarification to understand the specific Committee that I was addressing. President Morton inferred Committee -of -the -Whole. Councilwoman Hess raised the topic of the delay in resolving this matter and suggested that the salary amendment be made retroactive (for the benefit of Elicia Feasel). There was general consensus to support that action especially by Representatives Kruszynski and O'Brien. Councilman O'Brien expressed that he did not believe the salary transfer should have ever been co -mingled with Kizer topics (recalling his previous Council vote in dissenting opposition that resulted in returning Bill 89-15 back to Committee). Committee member O'Brien moved in favor of recommending Bill 89-15 with retroactive privileges. Committee voted all in favor. None were opposed. None abstained. Committee member McCahill inquired as to what committee just entertained the vote. I offered that the original bill was entertained by the Land Use Planning Committee. • 01/29/2016 4P: Brief meeting with Director Feasel regarding Indiana Open Door Law and requests for information.
