SUMMARY STATEMENT:
At the February 28, 2013 City Council Meeting the Council discussed that the City of McCall is currently
without a comprehensive collection of governance principles, policies, procedures, and standards of
conduct for the Council / Manager form of governance. This lack has the potential to lead to vague,
ambiguous and confusing understanding of roles, responsibilities and decision making for doing the City’s
business. Many Cities are in this situation, and progressive Cities have found ways to gain clarity,
establish written City Governance Policies, Procedures, and Guidelines. These have proven invaluable
not only for current Councils and Managers, but as a means of smoothly integrating new Council
members and City Managers.
The Council appointed Nic Swanson and Jackie Aymon to review and interview Stan McNutt, a native of
Payette, and currently retired resident of St. Maries, has visited McCall, met with the City Manager, and
proposes roughly a 28 hour engagement leading to the building of a strong Council / Manager working
relationship.
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Council Member Swanson and Council Member Aymon will give their recommendation to the Council.
