MEMORANDUM
TO: Council Member Davenport
FROM: Jennifer M. Perrin
City Clerk
DATE: March 30. 1994
SUBJECT: Your Questions Regarding the City Council Minutes of March 16. 1994
This is in response to your memo dated March 24, 1994 (please see attached).
1. The minutes do not reflect that the cable company discontinued live T.V.
coverage alter the 1:20 a.m. break
The minutes usually do not mention King Videocable and whether it was there or not to
record the meeting. If the City Council directs that it be mentioned in the minutes, I shall
do so.
2. The minutes do not reflect the Council Members' dialoguein regard to Mr. Dennis
Cochran's request to continue his agenda item regarding Graffiti Abatement
Services
You will recall that during budget discussion last year, the City Council voted to
discontinue the preparation of both "long" and "short" minutes and instead prepare one
set of "action minutes"; therefore, the minutes will not include this type of dialogue unless
I am directed otherwise by the City Council. Further at your request, this matter will be
placed on the next agenda; however, because the City Council took action to lay this
matter on the table. it is my understanding that the item will require a vote to reconsider.
3. Number the minutes to correspond to the City Council agenda
Typically, the minutes are prepared to follow the meeting and the order in which the
items were discussed and not the agenda; however, if Council would like to change that
and number everything according to the agenda, I will accommodate that.
4. The minutes de not identify the consent items removed by Council Member
Davenport numbers 3.4 d 8 and Mayor's comments and "inappropriate" laughter
Please see page two of the minutes which identify Consent Calendar items # 3, 4 and 8
as being removed by Council Member Davenport. Further. as it was stated before, these
minutes are "action minutes" and, therefore, do not reflect each comment or laughter
made by City Council Members. if the Council directs that it be added, I will do so.
At your request, these items will be placed on the next agenda, and a vote to reconsider
the matter will be required.

Questions on March 16. 1994 Minutes

Page Two
S. The minutes do not accurately reflect the time Council Member Davenport left the
meeting
The minutes do accurately indicate the time you left the meeting and that you left prior to
Council discussion on the matter (which followed introduction of the matter by Mr.
Callahan). However, I can see that this wording may not be as clear as i intended;
therefore, the dem win be changed to read as follows:
'Following introduction of this matter, Council Member Davenport left the meeting
(approximately 2:14 a.m.)."
6. Demand that agenda item #E-9 regarding the purchase of a police vehicle be
placed on the next agenda
At your request, this matter will be placed on the next agenda; however. as stated
before, the City Council took action on this matter, and, therefore. the Rem will require a
vote to reconsider.
7. Minutes state improperly `The City Council meeting reconvened at approximately
2:30 a.m."and no proper adjournment of the meeting or time Is reflected or
documented on the tape recording
Again, Mr. Davenport, you misunderstood (as I explained to you a second time on March
23. 1994). The meeting did reconvene and was adjourned by Mayor Sieglock at 2:30
a.m. as the minutes stated. What was explained to you was that the announcement of
the adjournment was not recorded on the tape recording system, as is usually the
case, and the adjournment time is, and always has been, recorded by the City Clerk
in the official records; therefore, your assumption that the meeting is still "on going" is
incorrect.
In summary, the only change on the minutes win be on page 10 in regards to when you left the
meeting. If the City Council directs that there be other changes, 1 will do those immediately and
send copies of the corrected minutes to our regular mailing list as you requested in your memo.

FROM: RAY DAVENPORT, COUNCILMEMBER
DATE: MARCH 24, 1994
SUBJT: OMISSIONS AND ERRORS OF THE CITY COUNCIL
MINUTES MEETING OF MARCH 16, 1994
A review of the minutes of the regular meeting of March 16, 1994,
reflect the following omissions or errors:
1.) The minutes do not reflect that the cable company
discontinued live T.V. coverage after the 1:20 a.m. break called
by Mayor Sieglock.
2.) The minutes do not reflect the councilmembers dialogue in
regard to Mr. Dennis Cockran's request to continue his agenda
item regarding Graffiti Abatement Services be postponed until the
next council meeting due to the late hour. It should be noted
Councilmember Snider and City Manager Tom Peterson stated "they
do not want to listen to anything Mr. Cockran has to say";
"not wanting to listen" is not in the procedures to justify
denial of a proper agenda item and suggest discrimination and
bias against citizens protected by the first and fourteenth
amendments. Please reschedule this item for the next regular
meeting.
3.) Please number the minutes to correspond to the City Council
Agenda ie.: J. 1. ect.
4.) The minutes do not identify the consent items removed by
myself numbers 3, 4, and 8. The minutes do not reflect Mayor
Sieglock's twice comments that he is not going to listen to me
nor his inappropriate laughter concerning serious City business
and expenditures of taxpayers' monies. The fact is items 3,4,
and 8 were improperly approved because a councilmember was denied
discussion on the consent calendar items as evidenced in the
transcription of the meeting prepared by your office.
Please place the items back on the agenda for discussion and
proper action under regular calendar.
5.) The minutes do not accurately reflect the time I left the
meeting, in fact I left the meeting after the introduction of
item 9 not before. It was during Mr. Calahan's presentation on
consent calendar item 9 that I left the meeting as reflected by
Mayor Sieglock's acknowledgement of "good night" evidenced by the
tape recording of the meeting.
6.) I have read the minutes and reviewed the tape of the council
meeting on 3/21 and 3/23 and object to the procedure of consent
item 9; purchase of a police car. Resolution 94-27.
I believe, the council action to be improper, not rising to an
emergency as required by law, a violation of the Brown Act and
improper council "action" of manipulating consent agenda items to
the regular calendar, acting out of order, modifying the council
communication and agenda item and railroading through the
purchase of a police vehicle notwithstanding the law, policy and
procedure.
I demand this item be placed on the agenda at the next meeting
for discussio- and proper action.
7.) The minutes state improperly "The City council meeting
reconvened at approximately 2:30 a.m." This is not a true
statement as admitted by you, the City Clerk; the council did not
reconvene after the executive session and no proper adjournment
cf the meeting or time is reflected or documented on the tape
recording of the March 16, 1994 council meeting.
Since the meeting was not properly adjourned, because no such
motion to adjourn exists. I assume it is still on going.
Please make the true and correct corrections of the March 16,
1994 meeting as reflected by the official record tape recording
administered by your office.
Forward these corrections to myself and all parties concerned
including the mailing list in a timely manner. This list of
omissions or errors is not to be considered complete, other
errors or omissions may be encountered in the City Council
minutes.

Sieglocic: Move on ... move on.
Callahan: Okay. This item. .-this council communication was prepared by the Police Chief;
however. I'll give basically the report. If you have any questions of him. he's
stayed as well to address those questions. if you have them. But basically, what
we have before you is the request to purchase one additional police patrol unit.
and the reasons for that are pretty well explained and I don't need to go into
those. What 1 need to explain to you Is the reason we need to change the action
that was before you. And that was, at about 1:00 today t was trying to get an
additional confirmation from the firm that we were suggesting we buy this police
vehicle from. which was Melrose Ford. You may remember just four short weeks
ago, we were here discussing four police vehicles and that was the firm that we
purchased those vehicles through. That order had already taken place; however.
before you with the letterhead of Downtown Ford, and you'll see a little pink
highlight in the middle of it we have given to you for your reference. We received
a letter from Downtown Ford, the agency who was one of the three that bid for
those vehicles that we shared with you about a few weeks ago. And in that
letter, we teamed that we had the ability to purchase. if we so desired, additional
police vehicles. Youl see that highlighted there is that we had to give them a
letter of intent to do so by March 16. When I received this letter, I thought
perhaps we should go and see if there is a possibility of buying a police vehicle
from Melrose Ford also, because if you recall the purchase price for the Ford
Crown Victoria from Melrose Ford was about $768 less than what we were going
to pay if we had purchased d from Downtown Ford. And Melrose Ford believed
they had a vehicle they'd give to us, but unfortunately it was contingency on
action that was going to be taken by the City of Woodland Council which met last
night. That Council decided to buy their full complement of vehicles which
honestly. I guess, the police chief or the equipment manager did not expect.
Because they took that action, we no longer had a vehicle available to us, as of
1:00 today. So then what t needed to do was quickly confirm from Downtown
Ford that a vehicle was available if you're action was to grant that we purchase
that and was able to secure that reassurance this afternoon. So, what we're
asking you to do basically would be to adjust the item before you to recommend
that the Police Department be allowed to purchase a 1994 Crown Victoria from
Downtown Ford for the purchase price of $16,788.53, additionally have you
approve the emergency equipment in the same amount, $4,170, and the
Motorola radio required for that vehicle of $4,000 for a new total of $24, 958.53.
Peterson: What's the new total. Dennis?
Callahan: $24,958.53 and basically what we are saying to you is we lost the savings of
$768.26 that we had toped to get by purchasing through Melrose Ford.
McNalt: If I might jump in here, Mr. Mayor. Obviously what's on the agenda tonight
doesnl have anything to do with what the proposed action is ... the agenda item
talked about purchasing a car from Melrose Ford and didn't make any mention of
anyone else. So, it you want to act on this tonight.. Jf the Council determines
that we need this cai as soon as we can gel it, it's gonna have to make the two
findings. Again, first that the need arose after the agenda was printed.. .
Peterson: The agenda just says one police vehicle.
t
E'
McNatt: Yeah. right, but when you look at the staff report that went with it. it says'

MEMORANDUM

TO: Council Member Davenport
FROM: Jennifer M. Perrin
City Clerk
DATE: March 30,1994
SUBJECT: Your Questions Regarding the City Council Minutes of March 16, 1994
This is in response to your memo dated March 24. 1994 (please see attached).
The minutes do not reflect that the cable company discontinued live T.V.
coveraoe after the 1:20 a.m. break
The minutes usually do not mention King Videocable and whether it was there or not to
record the meeting. If the City Council directs that it be mentioned in the minutes. I shall
do so.
2. The minutes do not reRect the Council Members' dialogue in reaard to Mr. Dennis
Cochran's request to continue his agenda item reaaroina Graff1d Abatement
Services
You will recall that during budget discussion last year, the City Council voted to
discontinue the preparation of both `long" and "short" minutes and instead prepare one
set of 'action minutes"; therefore. the minutes will not include this type of dialogue unless
1 am directed otherwise by the City Council. Further at your request, this matter will be
placed on the next agenda; however, because the City Council took action to lay this
matter on the table, it is my understanding that the item will require a vote to reconsider.
3. dumber the minutes to correspond to the City Council agenda
Typically. the minutes are prepared to follow the meeting and the order in which the
items were discussed and not the agenda; however, if Council would like to change that
and number everything according to the agenda, I will accommodate that.
The minuMs do not identify the consent Nems removed by Council Member
Vey
enPW numbers 3. 4 d d and Mayor's comments and 'inappropriate" laughter
Please see page two of the minutes which identify Consent Calendar items # 3, 4 and 8
as being removed by Council Member Davenport. Further, as it was stated before, these
minutes are "action minutes' and, therefore, do not reflect each comment or laughter
made by City Council Members. It the Council directs that it be added, I will do so.
At your request, these items will be placed on the next agenda, and a vote to reconsider
the matter will be required.
0 r)
Council Member Davenport
Questions on March 16, 1994 Minutes
March 30. 1994
Page Two
S. The minutes do not accurately reflect the time Council Member Davenport left the
meeting
The minutes do accurately indicate the time you left the meeting and that you left prior to
Council discussion on the matter (which followed introduction of the matter by Mr.
Callahan). However, I can see that this wording may not be as Gear as I intended;
therefore, the item will he changed to read as follows:
"Following introduction of this matter, Council Member Davenport left the meeting
(approximately 2.14 a.m.)."
6. Demand that agenda item 11E-9 regarding the purchase of a police vehicle be
placed on the next agenda
At your request, this matter will be placed on the next agenda; however, as stated
before. the City Council took action on this matter, and, therefore, the item will require a
vote tc, reconsider.
7. Minutes state improperly 'the City Council meeting reconvened at approximately
2:30 a.m." and no proper adjournment of the meeting or time is reflected or
documented on the tape recording
Again, Mr. Davenport, you misunderstood (as I explained to you a second time on March
23, 1994). The meeting did reconvene and was adjourned by Mayor Sieglock at 2:30
a.m. as the minutes stated. What was explained to you was that the announcement of
the adjournment was not recorded on the tape recording system, as is usually the
case, and the adjournment time is, and always has been, recorded by the City Clerk
in the official records; therefore, your assumption that the meeting is still "on going" is
incorrect.
In summary, the only change on the minutes will be on page 10 in regards to when you left the
meeting. If the City Council directs that there be other changes, I will do those immediately and
send copies of the corrected minutes to our regular mailing list as you requested in your memo.

SUHJT: OMISSIONS AND ERRORS OF THE CITY COUNCIL
MINUTES MEETING OF MARCH 16, 1994
A review of the minutes of the regular meeting of March 16, 1994,
reflect the following omissions or errors:
1.) The minutes do not reflect that the cable company,
discontinued live T.V. coverage after the 1:20 a.m. break called
by Mayor Sieglock.
2.) The minutes do not reflect the councilmembers dialogue in
regard to Mr. Dennis Cockran's request to continue his agenda
item regarding Graffiti Abatement Services be postponed until the
next council meeting due to the late hour. It should be noted
Councilmember Snider and City Manager Tom Peterson stated "they
do not want to listen to anything Mr. Cockran has to say";
"not wanting to listen" is not in the procedures to justify
denial of a proper agenda item and suggest discrimination and
bias against citizens protected by the first and fourteenth
amendments. Please reschedule this item for the next regular
meeting.
3.) Please number the minutes to correspond to the City Council
Agenda ie.: J. 1. ect.
4.) The minutes do not identify the consent items removed by
myself numbers 3, 4, and 8. The minutes do not reflect Mayor
Sieglock's twice comments that he is not going to listen to me
nor his inappropriate laughter concerning serious City business
and expenditures of taxpayers' monies. The fact is items 3,4,
and 8 were improperly approved because a councilmember was denied
discussion on the consent calendar items as evidenced in the
transcription of the meeting prepared by your office.
Please place the items back on the agenda for discussion and
proper action under regular calendar.
5.) The minutes do not accurately reflect the time I left the
meeting, in fact I left the meeting after the introduction of
item 9 not before. It was during Mr. Calahan's presentation on
consent calendar item 9 that I left the meeting as reflected by
Mayor Sieglock's acknowledgement of "good night" evidenced by the
tape recording of the meeting.
6.) I have read the minutes and reviewed the tape of the council
meeting on 3/21 and 3/23 and object to the procedure of consent
item 9; purchase of a police car. Resolution 94-27.
I believe, the council action to be improper, not rising to an
emergency as required by law, a violation of the Brown Act and
improper council "action" of manipulating consent agenda items to
the regular calendar, acting out of order, modifying the council
communication and agenda item and railroading through the
purchase of a police vehicle notwithstanding the law, policy and
procedure.
I demand this item be placed on the agenda at the next meeting
for discussion and proper action.
7.) The minutes state improperly "The City council meeting
reconvened at approximately 2:30 a.m." This is not a true
statement as admitted by you, the City Clerk; the council did not
reconvene after the executive session and no proper adjournment
of the meeting or time is reflected or documented on the tape
recording of the March 16, 1994 council meeting.
Since the meeting was not properly adjourned, because no such
motion to adjourn exists. I assume it is still on going.
Please make the true and correct corrections of the March 16,
1994 meeting as reflected by the official record tape recording
administered by your office.
Forward these corrections to myself and all parties concerned
including the mailing list in a timely manner. This list of
omissions or errors is not to be considered complete, other
errors or omissions may be encountered in the City Council
minutes.

SUBJT: CONSENT CALENDAR ITEMS, MARCH 16, 1994
At the regular council meeting of March 16, 1994, I properly
removed items 3,4, & 8 from the consent calendar and requested
discussion of the same.
You allowed the City Manager to remove item 9. You denied me my
right as a councilmember to address the items 3,4, S 8, without
any discussion of the items whatsoever. Your action also denied
citizens input. Your reason was that you were tired and did not
want to listen to me. You subsequently allowed the City Manager
and other staff members to proceed with consent item 9. I believe
such tyrannical conduct by the Mayor of our City is reflective of
your leadership.
Mayoral duties, Brown Act provisions and procedural rules of
conducting a meeting are not subject to your whim or physical
condition of being too tired to listen to councilmembers but not
too tired to listen to the City Manager or other select
councilmembers of your personal discretion. Since items 3,4, & 8
of the consent calendar were illegally approved I demand that
they be placed on the agenda at the next regular council meeting.
I have been subjected to your improper remarks and conduct in the
past which is a matter of public record, my response has been
tolerant and passive to date. However your flagrant misuse of
Mayoral power to attempt to nullify a duly elected representative
cannot go unnoticed.
Councilmembers in fact have a right to remove items from the
agenda they also have a right to make comment on the items they
removed, this is an elementary principle which you and other
councilmembers cannot blatantly ignore.
I trust your mayoral duties will conform to rules of procedure
and the Brown Act in the future.
Also, it is my opinion that it is inexcusable to have such a long
meeting and manipulate the agenda items to keep people waiting
almost.four hours to discuss the garbage issue of proposed
increases.

Callahan: Okay. This hem ... this council communication was prepared by the Police Chief;
however. 11 give basically the report. If you have any questions of him, he's
stayed as well to address those questions, if you have them. But basically, what
we have before you is the request to purchase one additional police patrol unit,
and the reasons for that are pretty well explained and I don't need to go into
those. What 1 need to explain to you is the reason we need to change the action
that was before you. Arid that was, at about 1:00 today I was trying to get an
additional confirmation from the firm that we were suggesting we buy this police
vehicle from, which was Melrose Forel. You may remember just four short weeks
ago. we were here discussing four police vehicles and that was the firm that we
purchased those vehthrough. That order had already taken place; however,
before you with the letterhead of Downtown Ford. and you'll see a little pink
highlight in the middle of it we have given to you for your reference. We received
a letter from Downtown Ford, the agency who was one of the three that bid for
those vehicles that we shared with you about a few weeks ago. And in that
letter. we learned that we had the ability to purchase, if we so desired, additional
police vehicles. You'll see that highlighted there is that we had to give them a
letter of intent to do so by March 16. When I received this fetter. I thought
perhaps we should go and see it there is a possibility of buying a police vehicle
from Melrose Ford also, because if you recall the purchase price for the Ford
Crown Victoria from Melrose Ford was about $768 less than what we were going
to pay if we had purchased it from Downtown Ford. And Melrose Ford believed
they had a vehicle theyd give to us, but unfortunately it was contingency on
action that was going to be taken by the City of Woodland Council which met last
night. That Council decided to buy their full complement of vehicles which
honesty. I guess, the police chief or the equipment manager did not expect.
Because they took that action, we no longer had a vehicle available to us, as of
1:00 today. So then what I needed to do was quickly confirm from Downtown
Ford that a vehicle was available if you're action was to grant that we purchase
that and was able to secure that reassurance this afternoon. So, what we're
asking you to do basically would be to adjust the item before you to recommend
that the Police Department be allowed to purchase a 1994 Crown Victoria from
Downtown Ford for the purchase price of $16,788.53, additionally have you
approve the emergency equipment in the same amount, $4,170, and the
Motorola radio required for that vehicle of $4,000 for a new total of $24, 958.53.
Peterson: What's the new total. Dennis?
Callahan: $24,958.53 and basically what we are saying to you is we lost the savings of
$768.26 that we had hoped to get by purchasing through Melrose Ford. '
McNatt: If I might jump in here, Mr. Mayor. Obviously what's on the agenda tonight
doesn't have anything to do with what the proposed action is ... the agenda item
talked about purchasing a car from Melrose Ford and didn't make any mention of
anyone else. So, if you want to act on this tonight ... if the Council determines
that we need this car as soon as we can get it, it's gonna have to make the two
findings. Again, first that the need arose after the agenda was printed...
Peterson: The agenda just says one police vehicle.

McNatt: Yeah, right, but when you look at the staff report that went with it, it says
Melrose. The agenda is the entire packet.
Sieglock: Right.
McNatt: You can still do it if you wish. You can make the fundings: need to take action
arose after the agenda was printed, that is now you're going to substitute in
Downtown Fond, instead of Melrose, and then vote on it if you wish.
Sieglock. Okay. It's been moved by Mr. Mann tsc'r lir Get T�•�'� �'r ?"

OTE: In regards to the announcement of the sWoumment to!lo ft Closed
Session, I believe you misunderstood what I was saying to you on Ats O
21,1994. The Mayer did bang the gavel and announce that the meeting
was adloumed following the Closed Session (as he does most of the
time); however, what I was wrAWning to you Is that nonnoW I do not
record the announcement of Me adjournment on the recording system.
