New Business---KCC Minute Recordings---Chuck stated that all council members should have copy of recordings. He deferred to Al as parliamentarian. Al reported he thought it was a bad idea for members to have copies. Since we approve and post the minutes on our website, thus making them public knowledge, there is no need to even keep the recordings. The recordings should be “destroyed on a quartly basis”. Recording could create a possible “level of contention” and someone always wanting to re-vist and revisit minutes thus creating a burden on time. Al had researched Roberts Rules of Order. Chuck stated that after learning this he agrees no copies should be done and recordings should be destroyed. He also stated that per the District Attorney the KCC is not subject to the open meetings act, but that the KCC will still try to live the spirit of this law.
