HomeMy WebLinkAboutItem 2b - Cancellation of the Januray 2, 2018, City Council Meeting
DATE: November 21, 2017
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council
FROM: Dominic Lazzaretto, City Manager
By: Lisa Mussenden, Chief Deputy City Clerk/Records Manager
SUBJECT: CANCELLATION OF THE JANUARY 2, 2018, REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING
Recommendation: Approve
SUMMARY Due to a lack of agenda items for the City Council meeting of January 2, 2018, as well
as the timing of the holidays, it is recommended that the regular meeting of that date be
cancelled.
DISCUSSION
Traditionally, the City Council has cancelled one meeting per year around the holidays
in order to ease schedules when many employees, Council Members, and contractors
tend to take significant time off. This year, the Council Meeting that falls closest to, and
would be most affected by, the holidays would be the January 2, 2018, City Council Meeting.
At this time, only routine matters that are not time sensitive are scheduled for the City
Council meeting of January 2, 2018. Therefore, it is proposed that the meeting be
cancelled. Should a necessity arise, a special meeting could be conducted to expedite any item which might require immediate City Council action during the dark period.
FISCAL IMPACT
There will be very minor savings in printing costs and staff overtime by not conducting this meeting.
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council approve the cancellation of the January 2, 2018, regular City Council meeting; and direct the City Clerkâs office to post the required
notices.
