10. Consider a motion declaring an emergency on Ordinance No. 839 for preservation of public health, peace and/or safety making it effective immediately. -- Approved.

11. Discussion, consideration and possible action on No Smoking Policy. -- No action as the topic was tabled after considerable discussion and disagreement. Commissioner Bateman was clearly in favor of banning smoking in the city park. Commissioners Porter and York expressed the opinion that although there may be situations where smoking should be banned (i.e. indoor in public buildings and possibly certain events in the park) but an overall smoking ban outdoors (at the park) was "getting carried away" on limiting personal rights. Commissioner Reeder offerred no comment while Mayor Sallee appeared in favor of some type of park smoking ban. The other part of the discussion was on smoking on downtown sidewalks which may already be somewhat limited by state statutes limiting smoking within 25 feet of "public" entrances.

* medical updates on 3 city employees (Glover, Wileman & Weller)
