Following a string of tense meetings over the past year, which at times have included raised voices and heated debates, the Shawnee City Council will consider a new code of conduct f0r c0uncilmembers that includes provisions against “personal attacks” and “bullying” on the dais. City staff this week formally proposed changes to Policy Statement 7, the rules governing the conduct of city meetings. Of note is an entirely new proposed section that spells out the “do’s and don’ts” of city leader conduct. The proposed rules were discussed during the city governing body’s retreat in February 2021, according to city documents.
