FROM: Judith S. Cox, City Clerk
SUBJECT: First August Council Meeting — Date Change
DATE: June 30, 2010
INTRODUCTION
The City Council is asked to change the date of the first meeting in August from Tuesday,
August 3rd to Wednesday, August 4th.
BACKGROUND
The Council normally meets the first and third Tuesdays of the month. In August, the first
meeting would fall on August 3rd, which is also the annually scheduled "Minnesota Night to
Unite ". This is an event that is observed across the United States, and provides
neighborhoods with an opportunity to get together to meet and greet their neighbors. That
leads to better opportunities to fight crime through neighborhood involvement.
The Council should reschedule its first meeting in August to the following evening,
Wednesday, August 4th, so as to afford the Council the opportunity to meet with
neighborhood groups on the 3rd. Note that similar action to reschedule the first meeting in
August has taken place the previous eight years.
VISIONING RELATIONSHIP
This is a housekeeping item.
RECOMMENDATION
If the Council desires to participate in the Minnesota Night to Unite, it should reschedule the
August 3rd regular meeting to Wednesday, August 4th.
ACTION REQUIRED
If Council concurs, it should, by motion, offer Resolution No. 7019, A Resolution Changing
the August 3, 2010 Council Meeting Date, and move its adoption.
