RECOMMENDATION
That the Council adopt the Council regular meeting schedule for the 2024-25 fiscal year, including cancelling specified meetings.
ANALYSIS
The City Council’s regular meetings are held on Tuesday evenings at 6:00 p.m. in the Council Chambers. The Council also holds special meetings from time-to-time as well as joint meetings with other City agencies, as necessary. On an annual basis, the Council adopts a regular meeting schedule per fiscal year by cancelling specified regular meetings.
The regular meeting calendar is generally established to average three regular meetings per month. This balances the need for a calendar sufficient to handle the Council’s robust regular business while providing breaks in the calendar to allow sufficient staff time to prepare reports and undertake other business of the City. It also allows for breaks in the schedule for holidays and winter break. If additional meetings become necessary, the Council can add meetings to the calendar or call special meetings. It should be noted that the City Manager and staff strive to calendar Council items in a manner so that agendas are not overly light, nor overburdened in a manner that makes for excessively heavy agendas.
Taking these factors into account, and after consultation with the Mayor, the City Manager proposes regular meetings for the 2024-25 fiscal year to be held every Tuesday at 6 p.m. except on the following dates, which would be cancelled:
2024
July 2
