DESCRIPTION:
At its February 2, 2016 regular meeting, the City Council requested Staff provide information
regarding moving its regular meeting in January from the third Tuesday of the month, to the
second Tuesday. The City Council’s regular meetings are typically held every first and third
Tuesday of the month. In September of 2009, the City Council agreed to cancel the first regular
meetings of January, July and August, 2010, to facilitate planning ahead in regard to workload.
In September of 2010, the City Council voted to continue canceling the first meetings in
January, July and August, until determined otherwise by the City Council.
Mayor Haubert has asked that the City Council consider moving its January meeting to the
second Tuesday of the month to accommodate the Mayor’s attendance at the U.S. Conference
of Mayors held annually in Washington, D.C., during the third week of January. Attendance at
the conference results in a conflict for the Mayor in attending the City Council’s one regular
meeting in January.
