Arvada City Council Special Meeting
The business portion of the meeting centered on a motion to waive attorney-client privilege for specific communications between the City Attorney and council members related to a pending ethics investigation, specifically concerning Council Member Davis and communications regarding Wellby Gardens. The discussion involved clarifying the City Attorney's role in representing the city as an organization versus individuals, and outlining measures taken to ensure impartiality, such as retaining outside counsel for the council and a third-party investigator. The motion passed five to one, with one member excused. Following the business meeting, the Council moved into a workshop session to discuss the Climate and Sustainability Action Plan, featuring a presentation from the Arvada Sustainability Advisory Committee (ASAC) chair regarding the plan's development, goals, and incorporation of public feedback.
