SUBJECT: Change City Council Meeting Dates - Res. No. 7550 (F)
Action Sought
The Council is asked to offer Resolution No. 7550, a resolution changing the May
5, 2015 meeting date and adding March 12, March 31, and April 14, 2015 as City
Council workshop meeting dates.
Background
Looking ahead to the Council's meeting schedule for the months of March, April
and May there is a need to add several meeting dates and alter a regularly scheduled
meeting date.
Change of Meeting Date
The Council is asked to change the date of the first regular meeting in May
due to the School Referendum Election that will be held on Tuesday, May 5,
2015. Under state law, public bodies are prohibited from meeting prior to 8:00
p.m. on any day that the polls are open. Therefore, staff recommends moving
the first meeting of May from Tuesday, May 5 to Wednesday, May 6, 2015 at
7:00 p.m.
Additional Meetings
The Council is also asked to establish the following additional meetings for
the purposes listed below.

Workshop meeting to receive and discuss results of Community Center
Feasibility Study
Tuesday, April 14 @ 7:00 p.m.
Meeting to review results of City Administrator recruitment and select
candidates for interview
All meetings are schedule to take place in the Council Chambers at City Hall. In
addition to the primary meeting purposes identified above, other topics and agenda
items may be added to these meetings to support the work flow needs of the City.
