Title: Discussion and action to amend the City Manager search process by eliminating City Representative interview panels and instead have the entire body of the El Paso City Council conduct interviews with candidate finalists as one body. This process creates better perspective, allows for greater follow up questions and discussion, and achieve greater collaboration and unity. This further reduces the burden on candidate finalists and allows for better preparation during interviews. Amend interview process further by eliminating rule that restricts City Representatives to speaking twice and for only 20 minutes total.
