D-2
TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL
VIA: SERGIO GONZALEZ, CITY MANAGER
FROM: JEFFREY LAWRENCE CORNEJO, JR., CITY CLERK
DATE: MAY 1, 2023
SUBJECT: DISCUSSION REGARDING 2023 SUMMER MEETING SCHEDULE
BACKGROUND:
From 2009-2015, it was the tradition of the City Council to not hold Council meetings in August.
In 2016, the City Council modified the summer meeting schedule and decided to cancel the first
regular meeting during the months of July, August and September. This was done in an effort to
better manage the City’s business calendar and to avoid lengthy breaks between meetings. The
proposed action requests that the City Council discuss the 2023 summer meeting schedule and
provide direction to Staff.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends the City Council take the following action:
1)Discuss and provide direction to Staff.
ANALYSIS:
It’s common for City Councils to modify summer meeting schedules. They provide
Councilmembers and city staff an opportunity to take a vacation. Staff believes that scheduling
one meeting per month during the summer would be sufficient to attend to the City’s business
and should an emergency arise, a special meeting can be called. Staff is seeking direction on the
2023 summer meeting schedule.
FISCAL IMPACT:
There is no fiscal impact associated with the recommended action.
