At the next regularly scheduled meeting of the member's Primary Legislative Body,
each Official shall briefly report, either orally or in writing, on the meetings attended at City
expense. For .the purposes of this section, "Meeting" has the same meaning as specified in

shall be required regarding attendance at other functions that are not "Meetings" as defined by
the Brown Act, although Officials may choose to voluntarily provide brief reports concerning
those other functions. Meetings of legislative bodies created solely by the members' Primary
Legislative Body (i.e., council committee meetings, city board, commission or committee
meetings) are exempt from reporting to said legislative bodies on the actual meetings of the
council committee, board, commission or committee."

amended to read as follows:
