Case File 26-0891

Context: Case File 26-0891 shows the identical Second Reading item on both 2026-08-04 and 2026-08-18 with status active and no recorded vote or adoption in the file.

Recommended: Pull the adopted ordinance text, the clerk's action record for both the August 4 and August 18 agenda items, and any effective-date language, because the same item carried a Second Reading designation twice and the record here does not show a recorded adoption. Until you confirm which body of text is operative, treat contract templates and agreements that name the Risk Management Division as the insurance-approving entity under Section 15.24.010(D) as an open question rather than assuming the new office name controls.

Context: The ordinance before Council on August 4 and again on August 18, 2026 amends Title 15, Chapter 15.24, Section 15.24.010, Subsection D (Insurance) solely to replace references to the Risk Management Division with the Enterprise Risk and Safety Office.

Recommended: If you hold or are negotiating a lease, license, concession, or purchase involving City of El Paso property, check which office your certificates of insurance and coverage approvals are routed to — the code subsection governing insurance for acquisition, use, and disposition of city property is being retitled from the Risk Management Division to the Enterprise Risk and Safety Office. Submitting to the wrong office after adoption can stall a closing or occupancy approval while paperwork is re-issued.

Context: The identical Second Reading item on Chapter 15.24, Section 15.24.010, Subsection D appears twice in the record — 2026-08-04 and 2026-08-18 — with no disposition noted for the first appearance.

Recommended: Request the clerk's disposition for the August 4 item and ask the City Attorney's office and Enterprise Risk and Safety Office whether the item was postponed, failed, re-noticed, or re-published with altered text — a purely nomenclature amendment repeating at second reading two weeks apart is unusual. The same request should ask how many other Title 15 sections still reference the Risk Management Division, which reveals whether this is a one-off or part of a larger unfinished renaming cleanup.
