5. MOTIONS
a. Discuss and consider possible amendments to the City Charter of the City of
Baytown.
Mrs. Horner stated that the 2018 Baytown Charter Review Committee submitted a final report of
proposed amendments to the Baytown City Charter on May 24, 2018, in which there were 27
recommended changes that affected 28 sections. She stated that there were six (6) substantives,
six (6) conformance with state law, six (6) housekeeping, and nine (9) efficiency changes. She
noted that the committee was also concerned about general neutral issues; therefore, in the
amendments to the charter they requested that the editor address those through the editors' notes
throughout the charter after the election. She stated that each item has to be specific to a specific
subject so that the voters are authorized to vote yes or no on each subject independently. In
summarizing some of the proposals she stated with regards to Section 9, which involves the City
annexing, that the proposal is to shorten the time between the first and second readings so that
two (2) readings can be held consecutively. With regards to Section 13, Qualifications of the
council members, she stated that the recommendation is to require that the qualifications be
for the time applying for the position throughout the duration of the term and is a forfeiture of
office for failure to maintain qualifications referenced in the Charter, as well as, state law. Mrs.
Horner stated that the recommendation from the Committee for Section 26, council to be judge
of qualifications for its members, is to incorporate an investigative complaint process in the
Charter for Council to be able to receive complaints and investigate whether or not there's been a
violation of the Charter or a member no longer qualifies for the position. She further noted that
the Committee also discussed the placement of this investigative process in the existing Ethics
Ordinance instead of amending the Charter; this will allow the Ethic Commission to receive and
investigate the complaints before it goes to the Council in the form of a recommendation from
the Ethics Committee. With regards to Section 67, Director of Finance; powers and duties, she
stated that the recommendation is to clean up the language. She further stated with regards to
Section 117, Franchises; power of council that the recommendation is to not have three (3)
readings, but to be considered three (3) times. Regarding Section 138, amending the Charter, she
stated that the recommendation is to allow council to appoint a committee, but not be required to
do so.
Mrs. Horner stated that staff was prepared to have ballot language ready for the 27 items at
the next meeting, if Council did not have comments or changes to the recommended proposals.
For clarity purposes of the Ethics Committee process, Mrs. Horner explained that if a complaint
was filed, it would go to the Ethics Commission, whereas, an attorney would review the
complaint for validity and report back to the Ethics Committee. She stated that the Ethics
Committee would then decide if they wanted to move forward based on the recommendation
from the attorney. She stated that if the committee moves forward, they would hold a hearing and
make a recommendation to Council, who then makes the ultimate decision. Additionally, she
noted that the Ethics Committee is a recommending body; therefore, their recommendations go
to council. She further noted that if the complaint goes to Council, there would still be an
investigation and a report would be brought to Council.
