A proposal to require the Houston administration to develop an affirmative action plan for Springfield city government will be pulled off the table temporarily, but it will be reintroduced.
Alderman Doris Turner requested the ordinance, which asks for development of a plan to ensure a diverse workforce through hiring and recruitment practices.
The ordinance was listed on the “first reading” agenda for Tuesday’s city council meeting, but Turner says she wants to modify it and add more detail to it before it goes to the aldermen.
