Considering that many of the Council meetings are exceeding 3 hours and, in an effort to ensure that City business is accomplished in a timely fashion, staff is recommending adding an additional meeting a month to the Council’s regular meeting’s schedule. Staff has prepared a draft code amendment to reflect adding an additional meeting a month. Also, in this draft there has been some recommended changes to clarify the process used to call a special meeting and to clarify the start times of the meetings. If the Council chooses to make these recommended changes an Ordinance and Resolution will be prepared and brought back to the Council for adoption at their January 14th meeting making the changes effective February 1, 2021. It is also staff’s recommendation that Council maintain their Friday work sessions once a month as a Special meeting giving the Council the flexibility to cancel when the meeting is not needed. Attached are the draft code amendment and a 2021 calendar.  RECOMMENDED ACTION: Direct staff to prepare documents to adopt the code amendment altering the Council meeting days OR Direct staff to prepare documents adopting a schedule that reflects the current City code.
