TO: Mayor and City Council
FROM: Lori Hensen, Deputy City Clerk
DATE: 06/16/2015
SUBJECT: Meeting Date Change for Night to Unite and Municipal Election - Res.
No. 7582 (F)
Action Sought
The Council is asked to offer Resolution No. 7582, changing the August 4, 2015
and November 3, 2015 City Council meeting dates, and move its adoption.
Background
The Council normally meets the first and third Tuesdays on the month. In August,
the first meeting would fall on August 4, 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 held November 3.
However, that is also the day of our Municipal Elections. State law prohibits public
bodies 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 evening -- Wednesday, August 5, 2015 and Wednesday,
November 4, 2015.
Requested Action
The Council is asked to offer Resolution No. 7582, changing the August 4, 2015
and November 3, 2015 City Council meeting dates, and move its adoption.
