# Bloomington Common Council Committee On Council Processes, October 26, 2026

The City of Bloomington Common Council Committee on Council Processes met on October 26, 2026. The committee discussed a proposed process for removing members of boards or commissions appointed by the Council. Members agreed that the City Clerk’s Office and Council Attorney should work together on a revised draft for a future meeting; the committee also clarified that the removal process already underway should continue rather than restart. The Council Attorney will provide more information about formal censure, including when it may be appropriate. Public commenters urged a rigorous, legally sound process, with one recommending coordination with the executive branch and clear hearing and voting standards.

The committee continued its review of Title 2. Members deferred changes to the Committee of the Whole provisions pending further review of Robert’s Rules and the relevant code context. They agreed to move provisions on scheduling committee meetings from code into procedures. Public comment also addressed opportunities for more substantive, welcoming discussion at Council meetings and praised recent deliberative sessions. No procurement activity, contract awards, or budget decisions were identified.
