Bahorski, City Manager ~ ~ Council Meetings '- Cancellations for 2006 TO: FROM: SUMMARY OF REQUEST: That City Council cancel the fullowing scheduled Council meetings fur calendar year 2006: January 9, March 27, April 10, May 8, July 10, August 28, October 9, November 27, and December 25. . In the alternative City Council may wish to move to monthly meetings mid that those meetings occur on the fuurth Monday of each month. Moving to one meeting a month would not interfere with conducting the Redevelopment Agency meeting since both the City Council and Redevelopment Agency meetings would be held at the same time. If Council determined it would be best to move to one meeting a month it would only require amending Resolution 5179. The Seal Beach City Charter Section 407 would not have to be amended since that section only requires one meeting a month. BACKGROUND: Looking at" the Council meeting dates fur 2006, staff is requesting the City Council meetings dates alluded to in the previous section of the staffreport be cancelled. Cancellation of these meetings will not impact City Council business, and items needing attention can be rescheduled to the fullowing meeting. Cancellation of these meetings this far in advance will help the staff plan fur the upcoming year and will give the public advanced notice of the meeting changes. e As an alternative to canceling the previously referenced City Council meetings, City Council may wish to consider directing staff to prepare a resolution approving the meeting change and that the rnonthly City Council meeting be held on the fuurth Monday of the month. The City and Redevelopment Agency meetings could then be held as a joint meeting, thereby eliminating any conflicts with the Redevelopment Agency meeting schedule. AGENDA ITEM $13 e e e FISCAL IMPACT: There is no fiscal impact to canceling the meetings and if the Council moved to one meeting a month there would b~ a slight cost savings. RECOMMENDATION: 1. Upon a motion of City Council, the January 9, Mareh27, April 10, May 8, July 10, August 28, October 9, November 27 and December 25 City Council meetings in 2006 are cancelled, or in the altemative; 2. Direct Staff to prepare a resolution amending Resolution 5179 allowing a change to one City Council meeting per month and that the City Council meeting be held each month on the fuurth Monday of the month. This resolution would then be funnally considered at the next City Council meeting. Agenda Item_
