City Council Special Meeting Special Meeting Agenda June 24, 2020
All interested persons may appear and address the City Council on Unfinished Business, New Business, and
Public Hearings at City Council meetings. If you wish to address the City Council on an agenda item, please
wait for the Mayor or Chair to request public comment then queue behind the podium. When the Mayor or
Chair recognizes you, approach the podium and give your name and address. Comments are to be addressed
to the Mayor or Chair. The Mayor or Chair will direct your comments to the appropriate elected officials,
staff, or others for response. Keep your comments respectful, brief, to the point, and relevant to the agenda
item being considered. Each speaker from the public will be allowed one turn at the microphone for discussion
of an agenda item.
Below is a portion of the Rules of Order and Procedure of the Fayetteville City Council pertaining to City
Council meetings:
Agenda Additions: A new item which is requested to be added to the agenda at a City Council meeting should
only be considered if it requires immediate City Council consideration and if the normal agenda setting process
is not practical. The City Council may only place such new item on the City Council meeting's agenda by
suspending the rules by two-thirds vote. Such agenda addition shall be heard prior to the Consent Agenda.
Consent Agenda: Consent Agenda items shall be read by the Mayor and voted upon as a group without
discussion by the City Council. If an Alderman wishes to comment upon or discuss a Consent Agenda item,
that item shall be removed and considered immediately after the Consent Agenda has been voted upon.
Unfinished Business and New Business:
Presentations by Staff and Applicants: Agenda items shall be introduced by the Mayor and, if an ordinance,
read by the City Attorney. City staff shall then present a report. An agenda applicant (city contractor, rezoning
or development applicant, etc.) may present its proposal only during this presentation period, but may be
recalled by an alderman later to answer questions. City staff, City Council members, and applicants may use
electronic visual aids in the City Council meeting as part of the presentation of the agenda item.
Public Comments: Public comment shall be allowed for all members of the audience on all items of old and new
business and subjects of public hearings. A simple majority of the City Council members, present and voting,
may authorize a representative of a Fayetteville citizens' group opposing the ordinance or resolution to present
an electronic visual aid not to exceed five minutes, but no other electronic visual aid presentations will be
allowed; however, the public may submit photos, petitions, etc. to be distributed to the City Council. If a
member of the public wishes for the City Clerk to distribute materials to the City Council before its meeting,
such materials should be supplied to the City Clerk's Office no later than 9:00 A.M. on the day of the City
Council meeting. Any member of the public shall first state his or her name and address, followed by a concise
statement of the person's position on the question under discussion. Repetitive comments should be avoided;
this applies to comments made previously either to the City Council or to the Planning Commission when those
Planning Commission minutes have been provided to the City Council. All remarks shall be addressed to the
Mayor or the City Council as a whole and not to any particular member of the City Council. No person other
than the City Council member and the person having the floor shall be permitted to enter into any discussions
without permission of the Mayor. No questions shall be directed to a City Council member or city staff

Courtesy and Respect: All members of the public, all city staff and elected officials shall accord the utmost
courtesy and respect to each other at all times. All shall refrain from rude or derogatory remarks, reflections as

CITY OF
Fay t-11e
AANSAS
TO: City Council
Mayor
FROM: Matthew Petty, Councilmember
Susan Norton, Chief of Staff
DATE: June 23, 2020
SUBJECT: A resolution to reconstitute a Fayetteville Board of Health
MEMO
Background
In Arkansas, cities can create a Board of Health. State law § 14-262-102 and other related
statutes give a Board of Health important powers during epidemics. The City of Fayetteville
repealed its Board of Health less than two years ago due to lack of business. The proposal is to
reconstitute the Board as an independent body whose purpose is primarily advisory with respect
to relevant governmental units (see Duties in the included prospective agenda). Other duties
may be taken up by the Board if the Board judges those duties to be necessary for the public
health and in accordance with relevant ordinances, statutes, and guidelines.
Timeline
First meeting: As soon as possible, subject to Board availability.
Subsequent meetings: Loosely speaking, every two weeks during an epidemic.
City Health Officer
State law also provides for cities to appoint a City Health Officer with certain duties. The
proposal is for the position to be created and funded by the city in coordination with the new
Board's advice.
Funding
Another component of the proposal is a budget adjustment of $50,000 in emergency funding to
support the Board and City Health Officer in the execution of their duties.
Positions
State statute sets the formal membership of the Board at five members, two of whom must be
physicians. This proposal is to extend that membership with ex-officio positions as may be
judged necessary by the Mayor and as advised by the Board of Health. Ex-officio positions are
intended to be occupied by qualified individuals with credentials relevant to pressing public
health conditions.
The proposal recommends filling the new Board with the following positions:
1. Officer or director of city's largest medical research institution
2. Officer or director city's largest hospital system
Mailing Address:
113 W. Mountain Street www.fayetteville-ar.gov
Fayetteville, AR 72701
3. Current or former university clinic director/manager
4. Current or former multi -site clinic director/manager
5. Current or former director/manager of a psychiatric clinic or social services provider
• Ex-officio, at -large with relevant credentials
• Ex-officio, at -large with relevant credentials
• Ex-officio, city public safety director as designated by the Mayor
• Ex-officio, Mayor
Prospective members
1. Jay Gandy, PhD. Associate Provost, UAMS Northwest.
2. Lenny Whiteman. Vice President of Managed Care, Washington Regional.
3. Huda Sharaf, MD. Medical Director, Pat Walker Health Center.
4. Gary Berner, MD. Chief Medical Officer, Community Clinic.
5. Joey Gardner, DSW. Care Coordinator Supervisor, Beacon Health Operations.
• Stephanie Ho, MD. Physician, Vector Health and Wellness.
• Hershey Garner, JD MD. Physician, Highlands Oncology Group.
• Brad Hardin. Fire Chief, City of Fayetteville.
• Lioneld Jordan. Mayor, City of Fayetteville.
Prospective First Agenda
The proposal also suggests a first agenda for the new Board. While the Board is independent
and will set its own agenda, this agenda is presented as a guide for the new Board to use in
their first meeting.
Election of a chairperson and summary bylaws
The Chairperson shall preside over the meetings and serve as the primary point of contact with
the City and/or a City Health Officer.
1. Chair calls meetings and presides over them.
2. Chair sets meeting agendas.
3. Chair executes Board decisions; city assists and collaborates.
4. Rules and roles may change when a City Health Officer is appointed.
Summary jurisdiction and powers
Board has jurisdiction for one mile beyond the city limits, or five miles beyond the city limits
during an epidemic, by state statute. The Board has the power to assess and advise, and to
issue from time to time such orders and to adopt such rules and regulations, not inconsistent
with the public health laws of this state nor with the orders and rules of the State Board of
Health, as the Board may deem necessary for the proper exercise of its powers and duties.
Refer to the enabling statute for a full description of the jurisdiction and powers.
Summary purpose
The intended purpose is to advise relevant governmental units of the state of health of the
population within the statutory jurisdiction of the Board, including with respect to declared public
health emergencies. The Fayetteville City Council has directed the Board to focus on the
COVID-19 infectious disease epidemic. Refer to enabling statutes for a complete description of
the purpose.
Sunset
The City Council is required to consider the Board's dissolution, reconstitution, and/or
repurposing within four weeks of the end of any relevant state of emergency. When such a state
of emergency ends, the Board should provide a summary list, with annotations, of pressing
public health issues.
Duties
Advise relevant governmental units as to the following:
a. Public health threats, including infectious disease epidemics, and opportunities
for coordinated mitigation
b. Strategies, metrics, and benchmarks with respect to governmental public health
campaigns, specifically with respect to
i. Increasing adoption of advised personal health practices in the household
and the workplace
ii. Increasing voluntary compliance with public health advisories
iii. Increasing understanding of public health best practices and policies
1. Specifically including but not limited to, increasing voluntary
compliance of mask -wearing advisories
2. Make reports of the Board's meetings available to relevant governmental units.
Independence of the Board
1. The Board sets its own agendas.
2. The Board is intended to be an agent for the public health itself and not be beholden to
any particular political interest.
3. All advice provided by the Board should be based on empirical evidence to the greatest
extent possible.
Vote: Resolution affirming the City of Fayetteville is in a state of epidemic
Sample resolution text, to be amended at the Board's discretion:
On the basis of the best epidemiological reporting and analysis available to the
Fayetteville Board of Health and in accordance with all relevant ordinances and statutes,
the Board hereby affirms there is an infectious disease epidemic within its jurisdiction.
City report on communication with state officials
The City will provide a short briefing (ten minutes).
Vote: Resolution advising the epidemiological necessity of Fayetteville's mask law
Sample resolution text, to be amended at the Board's discretion:
On the basis of the best epidemiological reporting and analysis available to the
Fayetteville Board of Health, the Board hereby advises Ordinance 6323, colloquially
known as the Fayetteville Mask Ordinance and which establishes a mask requirement,
reasonable exemptions, and a public health campaign, is necessary to meet the
community's COVID-19 management targets and protect the health, safety, and welfare
of its inhabitants.
Feedback on city report on public outreach and education
The city will provide a short briefing (ten minutes) to the Board on efforts to promote mask -
wearing and other practices which reduce the spread of COVID-19. The Board is asked to
provide feedback to the City to maximize the impact of the City's resources. The City has
currently budgeted $100,000 for this effort.
Vote: Resolution requesting state COVID-19 press conference in Fayetteville
Sample resolution text, to be amended at the Board's discretion:
In consideration of the state of epidemic in the City of Fayetteville and Governor Asa
Hutchinson's call for a coordinated response with local cities, the Fayetteville Board of
Health respectfully requests the daily Arkansas COVID-19 press conference be held in
Fayetteville in approximately two weeks and that attending state officials meet with
relevant institutions and leaders at that time.
Preliminary discussion of City Health Officer position
The Board is requested to provide a shortlist to the Mayor to fill this position. The City will
provide a short briefing (five minutes) to the Board about the role of this position with respect to
the municipal apparatus. The Board is invited to discuss the potential of this position and to
assist with the creation of a job description, including how an interim function may be served by
a Board member, city staff, or other qualified individual. City funding has been made available to
meet these needs.
