SUBJECT: Council Meeting Date Change for August and November - Res. No. 7320 (F)
Action Sought
In this memo, it is recommended that the City Council adopt Res. No. 7320, changing the August
6, 2013 and November 5, 2013 Council Meeting Dates.
Introduction:
The Council is asked to change the dates in which the first regular City Council meetings in
August and November are held.
Background:
The Council normally meets the first and third Tuesdays of the month. In August, the first
meeting would fall on August 6th, which is also the annually scheduled "Minnesota Night to
Unite" in which the Council members visit block parties throughout the City.
The first regular meeting in November would normally be Tuesday November 5th. However, that
is also the day of our local City elections. By State law, public bodies are prohibited from
meeting prior to 8:00 p.m. on that day.
Recommendation:
As has been past practice, staff recommends designating the first meeting in each month to be the
following evenings Wednesday, August 7, 2013, and November 6, 2013.
