Also, at its November 6, 2012 meeting, the City Council directed Staff to return with information
regarding the decision process for determining the Recognition Event date. The recurring date
of the event, "the Friday after the second Council meeting in February ", was agreed upon by the
City Council at its July 18, 2006 meeting. The possibility of a new date will be discussed as the
recurring date continues to conflict with other City Councilmember commitments. A calendar of
City Council events for February and March is attached as reference to consider alternate dates.
