Nathan Jones, a supervisor in the City of Aurora finance division, presented a proposed revision to city code that would change Section 2-668 of Article 6, Chapter 2. Jones said the existing language "remits for the employee to come being considered for city contracts for up to 6 months" and described the revision as allowing the city to waive that six-month restriction when it is "deemed to be in the best interest of the city."

Council asked no substantive questions during the study-session presentation. When asked whether there were objections to moving item 3a forward, the council heard none and the item was advanced for further processing.

The proposed change is procedural: it does not repeal the post-employment restriction but would give the city manager/authorized city official discretion to waive the six-month prohibition under conditions to be defined in the implementing ordinance or administrative policy. Staff characterized the item as informational and appropriate to move forward for formal consideration.

No formal vote record was provided in the transcript; the council reached consensus to move the item forward for the next meeting or ordinance drafting step.
