Staff Report
4.3 Authorizing Remote Meetings of City Council and City Commissions Due to Increase in COVID-19 Cases
From March 2020 through September 2021, the City conducted meetings of its legislative bodies remotely pursuant to various executive orders that suspended certain Brown Act provisions. In October, the City returned to in- person meetings and at the same time May 03, 2022 Dublin City Council Regular Meeting Agenda 4
state law changed to require certain findings to be made for an agency to meet remotely.
Under the new law, AB 361, the City can conduct virtual meetings where the Governor has proclaimed a State of Emergency and state or local health officials have imposed or recommended social distancing or where the City Council has declared the need to meet remotely due to imminent risks to the health or safety of attendees. On January 11, 2022, the City Council adopted a resolution pursuant to AB 361 authorizing remote teleconferenced meetings for a 30 day period ending February 10, 2022. Due to the current increase in cases resulting from the Omicron variants, it would be prudent for the City Council and City Commissions to have the ability to attend meetings virtually for at least the next 30 days. The City Council will consider adopting a resolution that would allow for virtual attendance for the next 30 days.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt the Resolution Finding That There is a Proclaimed State of Emergency; Finding That Meeting in Person Would Present Imminent Risks to the Health or Safety of Attendees as a Result of the State of Emergency; and Authorizing Remote Teleconferenced Meetings of the Legislative Bodies of the City of Dublin Pursuant to AB 361.
