	==== Item 1: ~~Part 1~~ ====		==== Item 1: Call to Order and Roll Call ====

	~~The committee conducted an interview with Mr. Kaplan, a candidate for the Community Financial Sustainability Committee. Mr. Kaplan expressed his interest in contributing his financial expertise~~ to ~~the committee, emphasizing his background in finance, including his MBA from Berkeley~~ and experience managing large budgets in the securities industry. He discussed his perspective on the city's budget, highlighting the importance of understanding the distinction between discretionary and obligatory spending, and his belief in long-term planning to avoid short-term issues.		Call to Order and Roll Call at [0:00:03].

	~~Mr. Kaplan also shared his experience~~ on the Trail and Landscape Committee, where he felt the committee often acted as a rubber stamp for staff decisions. He emphasized the need for the new committee to establish credibility and build trust with the public by making informed, transparent decisions. He acknowledged the city's efforts to improve the committee's role and expressed appreciation for the resources available, such as the Annual Comprehensive Financial Report.		==== Item 2: Public Comment on Non ====

	~~During~~ the discussion, committee members expressed differing opinions on Mr. Kaplan's suitability for the role. While some appreciated his ideas and experience, others were hesitant, citing concerns about his expectations for staff support and whether his background in large organizations would align with the committee's needs. The committee also discussed the possibility of recommending Mr. Kaplan, along with other candidates, for appointment to the committee. They considered the timing of appointments, the need for a quorum, and the potential terms for the candidates. Ultimately, the committee deliberated on whether to move forward with recommending Mr. Kaplan for appointment, with some members expressing openness to proceeding while others remained cautious.		This item was not taken up at the meeting.

	~~'''Keywords~~:~~''' financial expertise, discretionary spending, long-term planning, committee credibility, staff support concerns, appointment recommendation, quorum requirements~~		==== Item 3: Action Items ====

	~~==== Item 2: Part 2 ====~~		The Budget/Audit Committee discussed the recommendation of appointments to the Community Financial Sustainability Committee, which would be acted on by the full City Council. The committee had completed interviews with three candidates—Jim Killeran, Hank, and Howard—and deliberated on whether to recommend all three, two, or none for appointment.

	Speaker 4 noted that ~~certain individuals had shown~~ the ~~most interest~~ and were ~~the first to step up, suggesting they should~~ be ~~prioritized~~. ~~Speaker 2 agreed~~, ~~stating the proposal was reasonable.~~ Speaker ~~4 confirmed they were fine~~ with ~~the suggestion~~, ~~proposing two-year terms for the positions in question~~. ~~The group reached agreement on~~ the ~~proposal, with Speaker 2 indicating they would place the item on the action calendar for further discussion. Speaker 3 supported the decision, affirming that it was~~ a ~~good move. Speaker 4 reiterated that the matter would be handled as an action item. A vote was taken~~, ~~with committee~~ members ~~voting in favor. Speaker 5 then announced that~~ the ~~meeting was adjourned at 5:08 p.m. Speaker 3 offered a closing thank you~~.		Speaker 4 noted that the committee needed a quorum to proceed and suggested waiting until more applicants were secured if a majority could not be seated. However, Speaker 3 expressed comfort in moving forward with all three candidates, citing their willingness to serve and their relevant financial backgrounds. He also emphasized the importance of avoiding a mindset of “how we’ve always done it” and welcomed diverse perspectives, including those from former council members and the treasurer.

	'''Keywords:''' ~~prioritize individuals~~, ~~two-year terms~~, ~~action calendar~~, ~~committee vote~~, ~~meeting adjourned~~		Speaker 2 raised concerns about Jim Killeran’s suitability, suggesting his experience in large organizations might not align with the committee’s needs and that his ideas could be resource-intensive. He was open to recommending two members instead but was uncertain about advancing Jim at this time.

			Speaker 4 explained that even without a quorum, the committee could still proceed with appointments, though it would be up to the full City Council to finalize the recommendations. Speaker 3 suggested staggering terms for Hank and Howard, with Hank serving a one-year term and Howard a two-year term, to facilitate knowledge transfer and avoid all members leaving at the same time. Speaker 2 and Speaker 4 agreed to this approach, and the committee ultimately decided to recommend both Hank and Howard for two-year terms.

			The recommendation was approved by the committee members present, and the item was set to be included on the City Council’s agenda for the meeting on December 20.

			==== Item 1: Call to Order and Roll Call ====

			This item was not taken up at the meeting.

			==== Item 2: Public Comment on Non ====

			The Budget/Audit Committee meeting commenced at 4:00 p.m. with the chairperson confirming the attendance of Committee members Holly Tillman and Jeff Wan. The chairperson then moved to the next agenda item: public comment on non-agenda items. The chairperson noted that no speaker cards were available but asked if anyone in the audience wished to speak about matters not listed on the agenda. No members of the public indicated an intention to speak on non-agenda items, and the meeting proceeded to action items without further discussion on this topic.

			'''Keywords:''' Budget/Audit Committee, public comment, non-agenda items, speaker cards

			==== Item 3: Action Items ====

			The Budget/Audit Committee discussed the proposed debt management policy, which is required by state law and aligns with best practices from the Government Finance Officers Association. Nitesh Sharma, the interim finance director, explained that the policy establishes criteria for issuing debt, outlines roles for consultants and investors, and ensures that debt payments take priority over other expenditures. It also includes an internal loan policy to govern borrowing between city funds, ensuring transparency and compliance with legal requirements. Sharma noted that the city currently has limited debt, primarily from special assessment districts, and emphasized that the policy would guide future debt issuance and management.

			Committee members raised questions about the policy’s language, particularly regarding the budget office’s role in tracking inter-fund loans and the inclusion of long-term financial planning in the document. Sharma clarified that the policy would be consistent with the city’s annual budget, capital improvement program, and long-term forecasts, but these documents would not be attached to the policy itself. Members also discussed the potential for inter-fund loans and the administrative burden of tracking them, with Sharma explaining that the process would involve minimal overhead and that the policy would provide transparency in such transactions.

			A member noted that the city has historically avoided general fund debt and that current debt is largely assessment-driven. Another member expressed concern that the policy might inadvertently restrict the city’s flexibility, but Sharma emphasized that the policy would not prevent the city from making direct contributions between funds if needed. The committee ultimately supported moving the policy forward to the full City Council for adoption, with a motion seconded and approved by a vote.

			'''Keywords:''' debt management policy, state law alignment, internal loan policy, inter-fund loans, financial transparency, long-term planning, policy adoption motion
