RE:                       Request to Place Council Resolution on the Agenda for the October 22, 2019 Additional Legislative Meeting

 

 

               This is a request that the following measure be placed on the agenda for the October 22, 2019 Additional Legislative Meeting:

 

  • Council Ad Hoc Committee Procedures Resolution of 2019

 

In July I proposed, and the Council adopted a resolution authorizing investigation of Councilmember Jack Evans for alleged violations of the Council’s Code of Conduct.  On October 8, 2019, I circulated a memorandum appointing an Ad Hoc Committee in anticipation of the investigatory report.  I announced that the Committee shall function pursuant to the Council Rules and that all Councilmembers, except Mr. Evans, were appointed to the Committee.  Councilmember Cheh was appointed as chair of the Committee.  The purpose of this resolution is to address details to ensure that the Ad Hoc Committee’s work can proceed without ambiguity.

 

               A copy of the draft resolution is attached.  Please call me or Mr. Evan Cash if you have any questions at (202) 724-7002.
