REPORT TO GOVERNANCE AND ETHICS COMMITTEE
SUBJECT
Title
Review and Action on the 2026 Governance and Ethics Committee Workplan (CONTINUED FROM MARCH 30, 2026)
Report
BACKGROUND
On an annual basis, the Governance and Ethics Committee establishes a workplan with items prioritized for the calendar year. Additional items may be recommended by the Committee or staff, which staff will bring forward as appropriate.
On March 30, 2026, this agenda item was brought forth for review and consideration to the Governance and Ethics Committee. Committee members discussed and added a few additional items for consideration to the workplan. In addition, Committee members stated the meeting schedule for the Governance and Ethics Committee should be reviewed with more meetings to allow time to complete the workplan items. The Committee directed staff to schedule a special Committee meeting to review, prioritize and vote on the workplan items.
DISCUSSION
To prepare and plan for the Committee workload, staff developed a proposed workplan for the 2026 calendar year. The workplan includes items which have been carried over from the previous approved workplan, and potential new items requested by Committee members and/or recommended by staff. It is also important to note, some work plan items listed may require more than one meeting to allow for full discussion and Committee action. During the year the Committee and staff may amend the workplan to add, delete, or re-prioritize items as desired or needed.
