IV.5. Approval of 2017 City Council Meeting Schedule; Mornson (CR2016-082)October 4, 2016 Council Report 2016-082
Approval of the 2017 City Council Meeting Schedule
Proposed Action.
Staff recommends adoption of the following motion: Move to approve the 2017 City Council
Meeting Schedule.
Overview
:
Staff is recommending that the City Council approve the proposed 2017 meeting schedule. Staff
has reviewed the potential conflicts and outlined the proposed changes in the meeting analysis.
It has been customary since 1998 for the City Council to adopt its meeting calendar for the
upcoming year prior to or at the first meeting of the year. This is good practice since there are
invariably several conflicts during the year where the normal dates and times need to be adjusted.
Primary Issues to Consider
:
Does the proposed meeting schedule outline all meetings of the City Council?
When creating the calendar staff attempts to foresee all dates and times for meeting, and attempts
to address as many potential conflicts as possible; there are times where a special meeting may
need to be scheduled during the course of the year.
