HomeMy WebLinkAboutItem 11b - Cancel January 5, 2021 City Council Meeting
DATE: December 1, 2020
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council
FROM: Dominic Lazzaretto, City Manager
By: Linda Rodriguez, Assistant City Clerk
SUBJECT: CANCELLATION OF THE JANUARY 5, 2021, REGULAR CITY COUNCIL
MEETING
Recommendation: Approve
SUMMARY
Due to the timing of the holidays and a very light agenda, it is recommended that the
January 5, 2021, City Council meeting 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 January 5, 2021, City Council meeting
falls closest to, and would be most affected by, the year-end holidays.
There are currently no time-sensitive items that have been scheduled for the January 5
meeting. If the City Council cancels the meeting, staff will plan ahead, ensuring there
are no delays in a time-sensitive item that would otherwise be addressed at that
meeting. Should a necessity arise, a special meeting could be conducted to expedite
any item which might require immediate City Council action.
ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS
The proposed action does not constitute a project under the California Environmental
Quality Act (“CEQA”), and it can be seen with certainty that it will have no impact on the
environment. Thus, this matter is exempt under CEQA.

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 determine that this action does not constitute a
project and is, therefore, exempt under the California Environmental Quality
Act (“CEQA”); and approve the cancellation of the January 5, 2021, regular City
Council meeting; and direct the City Clerk’s office to post the required notices.
