TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL

FROM: CITY MANAGER

DATE: DECEMBER 7, 2004

SUBJECT: JANUARY 18, 2005 CITY COUNCIL MEETING

RECOMMENDATION

Consider rescheduling the Tuesday, January 18, 2005 City Council meeting.

BACKGROUND

Two of the five Council members have indicated that they will not be able to attend the January 18, 2005 City Council meeting as they will be in Washington D.C.

DISCUSSION

The City Council’s schedule of meetings and events for January, 2005 is extensive. The dates already tentatively reserved are as follows:

Tuesday, January 4 City Council meeting

Monday/Tuesday January 10-11 Contract Cities Conference

Tuesday January 18 City Council Meeting

Tuesday January 18 Supreme Court Hearing

Saturday January 22 Committee Chair Training

Tuesday February 1 City Council meeting

There are no dates between January 9^th and February 1^st that are logical choices for a rescheduled meeting. The Council may wish to consider rescheduling the January 18, 2005 meeting to Thursday, January 13^th or Monday, January 24^th. The Council may also wish to consider not rescheduling the meeting, but simply limiting the agenda to more routine items.

Respectfully submitted,

Les Evans

City Manager
