Packet Pg. 157 Attachment: 2022 Code Adoption Ordinance [Revision 1] (3856 : Adoption of the 2022 California Building Standards Code Title 24 with local Ordinance No. ________
Chapter 15.04 of the Healdsburg Municipal Code, as currently in effect as of the date of the adoption of this ordinance, is hereby repealed in its entirety.
SECTION 2. FINDINGS
The City Council of the City of Healdsburg finds that, in order to best protect the health, safety and welfare of the citizens of the City of Healdsburg, the standards of building within the city must conform to state law except where local conditions warrant more restrictive regulations.
Pursuant to Section 17958 of the California Health and Safety Code, the governing body of the City of Healdsburg, in its ordinance adopting the State Building Standards Code and uniform industry codes, may establish amendments which are more restrictive in nature than those adopted by the State of California commonly referred to as Title 24 of the California Code of Regulations.
Based on the materials presented and by the recommendation of the Building Official, the City Council further finds that it is necessary to make the procedural and administrative modifications to the California Building Standards Code and to adopt or not adopt certain appendices to the Code.
Under the provisions of Section 17958.5 of the California Health and Safety Code, local amendments shall be based on climatic, geological and topographical conditions. As such, the City Council finds and declares that the following local conditions exist:
A. Climate. The City, on an average, experiences an approximate annual rainfall of 40 inches.
This rainfall can normally be expected between October and April. During the winter months, the City may experience periods of heavy rain, which causes local flooding, erosion and contributes to slope instability. Winter storms are often accompanied by high winds, which have uprooted trees and damaged power lines. The City has also experienced periods of heavy fog, which has delayed the response time for firefighting apparatus, and prevented early discovery of structure fires.
During the dry period, temperatures range from 70 degrees to over 100 degrees. These temperatures are often accompanied by a wildland-urban interface, creating a hazardous fire condition. With increased development spreading into the brush-covered foothill area, wind driven fires could have severe consequences, as has been demonstrated on several occasions throughout the State.
B. Geological. The City is susceptible to seismic hazards resulting from movement along any one of several known faults in the area. The most serious direct earthquake hazard threat is from the damage or collapse of buildings and other structures due to ground movement.
In addition to damage caused by earthquakes, there is a possibility of earthquake-induced landslides. Fire is often the major form of damage resulting from earthquakes. Most earthquake-induced fires start because of damage to gas lines, power lines or heat producing appliances. In addition, unstable slopes have been identified in the City, which present a significant potential for landslides. In the event of a major earthquake or
7.B.a
Packet Pg. 158 Attachment: 2022 Code Adoption Ordinance [Revision 1] (3856 : Adoption of the 2022 California Building Standards Code Title 24 with local Ordinance No. ________
landslide, many areas of the City may not be accessible to emergency equipment and, if bridges or roads are damaged, the City may be isolated from outside assistance.
C. Topographical. The City borders include hilly terrain on the north, east and northwest portions of the City. The roadway systems in these hills are designed around the lay of the land with respect to narrow, winding and steep access-ways. The grades of these roadways sometimes exceed 25% and road widths of less than 12 feet are not uncommon. The City is also bordered by Highway 101 and the Russian River and divided by a railroad right-ofway. The railroad, river and freeway all create barriers, which obstruct traffic patterns and delay the response time for fire equipment. The water supply within the City is also directly affected by the topographical layout. The water distribution system consists of pressure zones, which carry water by gravity from various reservoirs. Water flow within the City can vary from less than 250 gallons per minute to flows in excess of 4,000 gallons per minute. This wide variation causes major problems to development as well as to fire suppression efforts. The hilly terrain contributes to drainage, erosion and slope instability problems for development.
Summary
Because of the conditions stated above, the Healdsburg Planning & Building Department must modify and amend certain portions of the California Building Standards Code to ensure that minimum construction requirements, standards and practices are in place to protect the life and safety of the citizens of the City of Healdsburg. Because of the conditions above, the Department has determined that it is necessary to mitigate the potential damage caused by earthquakes, erosion, lot-to-lot drainage and slope instability to protect the life and safety of residents and to ensure the structural stability of new development.
As a result of the findings, as set forth in this section, which identify various climatic, geological and topographical elements, those additional requirements as specified in the amendments to the adopting ordinance supplementing and amending the codes herein are considered necessary and reasonable modifications and do not lessen, diminish or change the standards set forth within the California Building Standards Code except as authorized by law.
While it is clearly understood that the adoption of such regulations may not prevent the incidence of fire, earthquake, erosion and slope instability, the implementation of the following amendments to the Code may reduce the severity and potential of loss of life and property and are reasonably necessary because of the local climatic, geological, and topographical conditions:

CITY OF HEALDSBURG
CITY COUNCIL AGENDA STAFF REPORT
MEETING DATE: December 19, 2022
SUBJECT: Conduit financing for the North Village Apartments Affordable Housing Project
PREPARED BY: Stephen Sotomayor, Housing Director
STRATEGIC INITIATIVE(S):
Expand Affordable Housing Opportunities
Provide Effective Governance
RECOMMENDED ACTION(S):
1. Conduct a public hearing under the requirements of TEFRA and the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as Amended (the "Code"); and
2. Adopt a resolution approving the issuance of Bonds by the CMFA for the benefit of Burbank Housing Development Corporation, a California nonprofit public benefit corporation and an organization described in Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the "Sponsor"), on behalf of a limited liability company to be created and solely owned by the Sponsor or affiliate of the Sponsor (such limited liability company, the "Borrower"), to provide for the financing of the Project, such adoption is solely for the purposes of satisfying the requirements of TEFRA, the Code and the California Government Code Section 6500 (and following); and authorize the City Manager or their designee thereof to execute the Joint Exercise of Powers Agreement with the CMFA.
COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT/OUTREACH:
The item before the Council is being conducted as a public hearing under the requirements of the Tax Equity and Fiscal Responsibility Act of 1982 (TEFRA) and the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. A TEFRA hearing is a public inquiry required by the Internal Revenue Service of non-profit borrowers that intend to issue tax-exempt bond proceeds. The TEFRA hearing provides the public an opportunity to comment on the use of tax-exempt bond proceeds.
BACKGROUND:
In March of 2020, the City of Healdsburg approved a Development Agreement (DA) with CSS Healdsburg, LLC (“Comstock”) for the North Village project consisting of up to 301 residential units, 12,000 square feet of commercial retail, a 108-guest room hotel and other public-serving
7.C
Packet Pg. 173
amenities.
As a requirement of the DA, a portion of the residential units of the North Village are to be deedrestricted for affordable housing. Comstock has proposed to partner with Burbank Housing Development Corporation (“Burbank”) to satisfy this obligation and provide the requisite affordable housing units. Burbank Housing Development Corporation (“Burbank”) is proposing that the affordable units be financed in part through the use of tax-exempt revenue bonds.
Burbank requested that the California Municipal Finance Authority (CMFA) serve as the municipal issuer of Bonds in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $30,000,000 of taxexempt revenue bonds. The proceeds of the Bonds will be used for the acquisition, construction and improvement of a multifamily rental housing facility to be located on an approximately 3.01- acre parcel situated west of Healdsburg Avenue and at the southeast corner of Boxheart Drive and Dovetail Lane (APN 091-060-039) within the City and will be owned and operated by the Borrower (Burbank). The project site is locally known as the North Village affordable housing site.
In order for all or a portion of the Bonds to qualify as tax-exempt bonds, the City of Healdsburg must conduct a public hearing (the “TEFRA Hearing”) providing for the members of the community an opportunity to speak in favor of or against the use of tax-exempt bonds for the financing of the Project. Prior to such TEFRA Hearing, reasonable notice must be provided to the members of the community. Following the close of the TEFRA Hearing, an “applicable elected representative” of the governmental unit hosting the Project (in this case, the City) must approve issuance of the Bonds for the financing of the Project.
Additionally, in order for the bonds to be issued through CFMA, the City is required to join CFMA as a member agency. CFMA is a joint powers authority established under California Government Code 6500 et seq. The City Council is also required to authorize the issuance of bonds by CMFA for the project.
DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS:
Staff is recommending the City Council:
1) Conduct a public hearing under the requirements of TEFRA and the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”);
2) Adopt a resolution approving the issuance of the Bonds by the CMFA for the benefit of Burbank Housing Development Corporation, a California nonprofit public benefit corporation and an organization described in Section 501(C)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the “Sponsor”), on behalf of a limited liability company to be created and solely owned by the Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor (also the “Borrower”, which is Burbank), to provide for the financing of the Project, such adoption is solely for the purposes of satisfying the requirements of TEFRA, the Code and California Government Code Section 6500 (and following); and 3) Authorize the City Manager or their designee thereof to execute the Joint Exercise of Powers Agreement with the CMFA.

California Municipal Finance Authority
The CMFA was created on January 1, 2004, pursuant to a joint exercise of powers agreement to promote economic, cultural and community development, through the financing of economic development and charitable activities throughout California. To date, over 350 municipalities have become members of CMFA.
The CMFA was formed to assist local governments, non-profit organizations, and businesses with the issuance of taxable and tax-exempt bonds aimed at improving the standard of living in California. The CMFA’s representatives and its Board of Directors have considerable experience in bond financings.
Execution of the Joint Powers Authority Agreement
In order for the CMFA to have the authority to serve as the issuer of the bonds for the Project, it is necessary for the City of Healdsburg to become a member of the CMFA. Attached (Exhibit B) to this report is a copy of the Joint Exercise of Powers Agreement to be executed by a designated signatory of the City.
The Joint Exercise of Powers Agreement provides that the CMFA is a public entity, separate and apart from each member executing such agreement. The debts, liabilities and obligations of the CMFA do not constitute debts, liabilities or obligations of the members executing such agreement.
The Bonds to be issued by the CMFA for the Project will be the sole responsibility of the Borrower, and the City will have no financial, legal, moral obligation, liability or responsibility for the Project or the repayment of the Bonds for the financing of the Project. All financing documents with respect to the issuance of the Bonds will contain clear disclaimers that the Bonds are not obligations of the City or the State of California but are to be paid for solely from funds provided by the Borrower.
There are no costs associated with membership in the CMFA and the City will in no way become exposed to any financial liability by reason of its membership in the CMFA. In addition, participation by the City in the CMFA will not impact the City’s appropriations limits and will not constitute any type of indebtedness by the City. Outside of holding the TEFRA hearing, adopting the required resolution and executing the Joint Exercise of Powers Agreement of the CMFA, no other participation or activity of the City or the City Council with respect to the issuance of the Bonds will be required.
The Joint Exercise of Powers Agreement expressly provides that any member may withdraw from such agreement upon written notice to the Board of Directors of the CMFA. In the case of the proposed bond financing for the Borrower, the City, following its execution of the Joint Exercise of Powers Agreement, could at any time following the issuance of the Bonds, withdraw from the CMFA by providing written notice to the Board of Directors of the CMFA.

Need and Timing
The item requested of the Council is in advance of the City Council considering a proposed 3rd Amendment to the North Village Development Agreement that, among other provisions, proposes a deeper level of affordability for the affordable units in the project.
The approval of this item does not limit the City Council’s ability to approve or deny proposed changes to the North Village DA. The proposed action would allow Burbank to access taxexempt conduit financing through CMFA. Burbank is proposing to issue bonds for this project in the immediate future in order to take advantage of a below-market interest rate that is currently available for a limited time. Should the project not move forward, Burbank has indicated that the issuance includes provisions that would allow them to unwind and close the bonds in the event project approvals are not obtained.
ENVIRONMENTAL STEWARDSHIP:
The approval of this item does not have a direct correlation to environmental stewardship.
ALTERNATIVES:
The City Council may choose to:
1. Not hold the public hearing or join CMFA, at which point staff would seek additional direction from the City Council.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The Board of Directors of the California Foundation for Stronger Communities, a California non-profit public benefit corporation (the “Foundation”), acts as the Board of Directors for the CMFA. Through its conduit issuance activities, the CMFA shares a portion of the issuance fees it receives with its member communities and donates a portion of these issuance fees to the Foundation for the support of local charities. Upon completion of a bond issuance to Burbank, the City will receive a portion of the issuance fee attributable as general fund revenue.
ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS:
Any environmental impacts related to the Development Agreement for the North Village project have been reviewed and considered in accordance with the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act. On May 20, 2019, the City Council certified the Final Environmental Impact Report ("EIR") for the North Entry Area Plan (State Clearinghouse No. 2018062041) and adopted related findings, a Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program, and a Statement of Overriding Considerations which can be found in the Planning Department’s files for the North Village Project at 401 Grove Street, Healdsburg, CA 95448. In accordance with the California Environment Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines Section 15162, no further environmental review is required for the Second Amendment because (i) there are no changes involving new significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects/impacts, (ii) there are no changes with respect to the circumstances under which the project is taken which will require major revisions to the EIR due to the involvement of new significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects/impacts, and (iii) there is no new information of substantial importance that was not known at the time the EIR was certified which shows (a) the project will have one or more significant effects not discussed in the EIR,
7.C
Packet Pg. 176
(b) significant impacts/effects will be substantially more severe than shown in the EIR, (c) mitigation measures or alternatives previously found not to be feasible would in fact be feasible and would substantially reduce one or more significant effects/impacts, or (d) mitigation measures or alternatives which are considerably different from those analyzed in the EIR would substantially reduce one or more significant effects/impacts on the environment.

When such an audit of accounts and records is made by a certified public accountant or public accountant, a report thereof shall be filed as a public record with each Member and also with the county auditor of each county in which a Member is located; provided, however, that to the extent permitted by law, the Authority may, instead of filing such report with each Member and such county auditor, elect to post such report as a public record electronically on a website designated by the Authority. Such report if made shall be filed within 12 months of the end of the Fiscal Year or Years under examination.
The Treasurer is hereby directed to report in writing on the first day of July, October, January, and April of each year to the Board and the Members which report shall describe the amount of money held by the Treasurer for the Authority, the amount of receipts since the last such report, and the amount paid out since the last such report (which may exclude amounts held by a trustee or other fiduciary in connection with any Bonds to the extent that such trustee or other fiduciary provided regular reports covering such amounts.)

To the full extent permitted by law, the Board may authorize indemnification by the Authority of any person who is or was a Director or an officer, employee of other agent of the Authority, and who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to a proceeding by reason of the fact that such person is or was such a Director or an officer, employee or other agent of the Authority, against expenses, including attorneys fees, judgments, fines, settlements and other amounts actually and reasonably incurred in connection with such proceeding, if such person acted in good faith in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in the best interests of the Authority and, in the case of a criminal proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe the conduct of such person was unlawful and, in the case of an action by or in the right of the Authority, acted with such care, including reasonable inquiry, as an ordinarily prudent person in a like position would use under similar circumstances.

Packet Pg. 189 Attachment: CMFA JPA Agreement- Healdsburg (3849 : North Village TEFRA Hearing CMFA) Section 14. Contributions and Advances.
Contributions or advances of public funds and of the use of personnel, equipment or property may be made to the Authority by the Members for any of the purposes of this Agreement. Payment of public funds may be made to defray the cost of any such contribution or advance. Any such advance may be made subject to repayment, and in such case shall be repaid, in the manner agreed upon by the Authority and the Member making such advance at the time of such advance. It is mutually understood and agreed to that no Member has any obligation to make advances or contributions to the Authority to provide for the costs and expenses of administration of the Authority, even though any Member may do so. The Members understand and agree that a portion of the funds of the Authority that otherwise may be allocated or distributed to the Members may instead be used to make grants, loans or provide other financial assistance to governmental units and nonprofit organizations (e.g., the Foundation) to accomplish any of the governmental unit’s or nonprofit organization's purposes.
Section 15. Immunities.
All of the privileges and immunities from liabilities, exemptions from laws, ordinances and rules, and other benefits which apply to the activity of officers, agents or employees of Members when performing their respective functions within the territorial limits of their respective public agencies, shall apply to the same degree and extent to the Directors, officers, employees, agents or other representatives of the Authority while engaged in the performance of any of their functions or duties under the provisions of this Agreement.

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA STAFF REPORT
MEETING DATE: December 19, 2022
SUBJECT: Saggio Hills Park Naming Process
PREPARED BY: Mark Themig, Community Services Director
STRATEGIC INITIATIVE(S):
Maintain and Improve Infrastructure and Facilities
Provide Resident-Driven Community Services
RECOMMENDED ACTION(S):
Discuss a proposed process for naming the new park in the Saggio Hills development and provide direction to staff.
COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT/OUTREACH:
Not applicable. Community engagement is proposed to be part of the naming process.
BACKGROUND:
The Development Agreement for the Saggio Hills project required that the developer provide approximately 36 acres of land for a future public park. The City has completed a communitybased master planning process for the new park, and will be taking ownership of the park land in early 2023.
In preparation for naming the new park, on August 1, 2022, City Council reviewed the City’s existing park naming policy. During the discussion Council members provided the following input (summarized):
• Follow the policy and charge the Parks and Recreation Commission for leading the process for soliciting community ideas for naming and making forwarding suggestions to the City Council
• Consider incorporating principles from the City’s ongoing Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) work in the naming process
• Define the opportunities for sponsorship naming opportunities; City Council members had differing opinions on whether the entire park could be named after a donor or sponsor • City staff should not lead a capital campaign
8.A
Packet Pg. 193
Council directed that staff return to City Council with a proposed naming process based on the existing park naming policy for Council consideration.
DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS:
The Healdsburg City Council adopted a park naming policy in 2002 to create a uniform way to name existing and future park and/or recreation facilities (attached). The policy’s objectives are to:
1. Ensure that naming/memorializing of public parks and recreation facilities will enhance the values and heritage of the City of Healdsburg and will be compatible with community interests.
2. Name public parks or recreation facilities so that they will be easily identified as to geographical location and/or function.
3. Encourage the dedication of land or funds for public use by individuals and groups, and provide recognition of their achievements or community contributions.
Implementation of the policy includes the following components:
• The City Council has final authority in naming all public parks and recreation facilities within its jurisdiction.
• No park site or recreation facility will be named for a living person, unless the site or facility has been donated by an individual, or a substantial donation has been made by an individual or organization to acquire a park site or recreation facility. • When appropriate, a park or recreation facility can be named in honor of a person, posthumously, when such person has made major contributions to the community, the country, or the field of recreation and parks.
• Historical names may be considered when the name is appropriate to the site.
Additional elements of the City’s current policy include:
• When a park site or recreation facility is carrying out a particular theme, that theme may be considered for the park or recreation facility name.
• Markers such a plaques, signs, etc. for the sole purpose of memorializing are not to be permitted in City parks or recreational facilities. The policy does allow naming items within a park (tree, park furniture, meadow, room, etc.) in recognition of donated funds. • The criteria for naming includes service recognition or monetary/material contribution. • The policy gives the City’s Parks and Recreation Commission the role of soliciting naming ideas and making a primary and secondary recommendation to City Council.

Finally, the Council may wish to discuss plans and a process for soliciting sponsorship and/or fundraising for the park.
ENVIRONMENTAL STEWARDSHIP:

Hi Raina,
It was nice seeing you last week!
I submitted an application for the Planning Commission last night, but am concerned some of my answer to one of the questions was cut short. I entered several short paragraphs, but my full answer did not appear on the PDF copy I received after submission. Please see below for a copy of my full answer and let me know if there is something I should re‐submit before today's deadline.
Thank you!
Best,
Alex
_____________________________
Please state briefly your reasons for applying and why you feel you are qualified for appointment to this body.
It has been a privilege to call Healdsburg home for more than 20 years and would be an honor to serve the community as a member of the Planning Commission. Healdsburg is in the middle of a new era of development and revitalization, with city planning and land use at the center of every project.
My interest in land use and its impact on our community’s quality of life blossomed at a young age, long before I knew planning was a profession and critical component of any functioning municipality. As a child, I remember impatiently waiting at the five-way intersection toward the south-end of town and wondering what system could save me from this mess of honking cars and angry drivers. Years later, I smile at what became a roundabout and am humbled by the extensive planning involved to propose and develop a project that includes mixed transit, walkability, and historical preservation.
The roundabout was just the beginning. As projects in Healdsburg grow in number and size, I am increasingly interested in striking a balance between the town’s charm and character as an agricultural hub and tourist destination and would draw upon varied professional experience to inform my decisions as a Planning Commissioner. As a farm assistant at Preston Farm and Winery and production manager at a coffee farm in Southern California, I am well equipped to navigate the needs of our farming community. I applaud projects like the Pavilion at 3 North Street as an effort to revitalize a historic building near the plaza and to lay the foundation for community supported agriculture in perpetuity. Food security is public health and the planning process can support both.
My experience as a restoration technician at the Santa Lucia Conservancy would also serve me well as a Planning Commissioner, especially when evaluating projects like the Montage Healdsburg Park Development or the Fitch Mountain Park and Open Space Preserve. With a deep love for open space, native habitat, and resilient ecosystems, I am committed to expanding access to recreational and conserved areas, while navigating questions about drought, wildfire preparedness, and scenic preservation.

Packet Pg. 213 Attachment: Commission Applications (3859 : Planning Commission - Council subcommittee) 2 In my current role as Program Coordinator and Regional Supervisor for California Climate Action Corps, I manage relationships with 45 partner organizations and 115 AmeriCorps members. Stakeholder engagement is an essential part of my job and would translate well to my service as a Planning Commissioner. My door will always be open in the spirit of collaboration and my decisions will be made with the goal of benefiting all facets of the community. I will commit to my full term and am keenly aware of the assumed work and responsibilities.
Thank you for your time and consideration and I hope to hear from you soon.

Dear Raina Allan:
The current term of Shaun McCaffery, the City of Healdsburg representative to our District’s Board of Trustees, will expire December 31, 2022. While it is no longer mandated that you appoint a representative to our Board {Health and Safety Code SB 1588, Article 3, Section 2022 (d)}, it is the intent of the Legislature that persons appointed to Boards of Trustees have experience, training, and education in fields that will assist in the governance of the District.
The following information is sent to assist your elected officials in the appointment process. California Health and Safety Code SB 1588 Section 2022 (a) Each person appointed by a board of supervisors to be a member of a board of trustees shall be a voter in that county and a resident of that portion of the county that is within the district.
Section 2024 (a) The term of office for a member of the board of trustees shall be for a term of two (2) or four (4) years at the discretion of the appointing authority.
Section 2023 (c) At the first meeting of the initial board of trustees, the trustees shall classify themselves by lot into two classes, as nearly equal as possible. The term of office of the class having the greater number shall expire at noon on the first Monday in January that is closest to the second year from the appointments made pursuant to Section 2021. The term of office of the class having the lesser number shall expire at noon on the first Monday in January that is closest to the first year from the appointments made pursuant to Section 2021.
If you have any questions please feel free to contact me at (707) 285-2200.
Thank you for your prompt consideration of this matter.
Respectfully,
Dawn Williams
Confidential Administrative Assistant

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA STAFF REPORT
MEETING DATE: December 19, 2022
SUBJECT: City Council meetings and work session dates for 2023 PREPARED BY: Raina Allan, City Clerk
STRATEGIC INITIATIVE(S):
Effective & Efficient Government
Provide Effective Governance
RECOMMENDED ACTION(S):
By motion, re-schedule certain regular 2023 City Council meeting dates that fall on a holiday and approve the City Council meeting schedule for 2023, including the anticipated work sessions and special meeting dates.
BACKGROUND:
The Healdsburg Municipal Code requires that the Council meet the first and third Mondays of each month.
DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS:
In 2023, the regularly scheduled meetings of January 2nd January 16 th
, February 20
th
, June 19th
and September 4
th fall on observed holidays and the City Hall offices are closed. Pursuant to the City Council’s protocols, those meetings would be rescheduled as follows:
Regular meeting date Rescheduled meeting date
January 2, 2023 January 3, 2023
January 16, 2023 January 17, 2023
February 20, 2023 February 21, 2023

September 4, 2023 September 5, 2023
July 3, 2023 Cancelled

Packet Pg. 222
2023 and July 17, 2023. A special meeting can always be called during that month if the need arises. Staff is also proposing to cancel the January 3, 2023 City Council meeting due to proximity to major holidays. The proposed regular Council meeting schedule is below for Council’s consideration.
The January 17 meeting has the potential to be problematic due to two out of town conferences that week that will require City Council attendance. Staff requests that the City Council discuss that meeting and the possibility of a special meeting on an alternative date and provide direction.

The City Council on an annual basis also holds work sessions and special meetings to discuss Council goal setting, the annual budget, and other issues that require additional Council discussion outside the regular meeting schedule. At this time, staff is providing three potential dates for a goal setting session. February 4, 2023, February 11, 2023 and March 10, 2023. We would like Council to discuss the three potential dates and provide direction on a preferred date.
In connection with this item, Staff is also suggesting Council keep every Monday open for potential special meetings.
ALTERNATIVES:
The Council can opt to further revise the proposed regular and special meeting/work session schedule as deemed necessary.
