3. Requests for information from other agencies or departments.

4. The Council's decision on a quasi-judicial matter or hearing.

5. Any other matter which may be accomplished by Resolution and which is not in conflict with the Charter.

C. No amendment to any resolution shall be allowed which shall change the scope and object of the resolution.

D. If the Council or Committee has not taken formal action on a proposed Resolution within two years from the date of referral to Committee, it shall be deemed "terminated" and removed from consideration by the Council or any Council Committee. The Clerk of the Council shall notify all appropriate individuals that the proposal has terminated. The terminated Resolution, along with any exhibits and supporting documentation thereto, shall be retained and filed in the Council Office for a period of two years following the termination. Proposed Resolutions that are terminated due to this two-year termination rule may be reintroduced under a new number.
