No. 7039CITY OF SHAKOPEE Memorandum T0: Mayor and City Council FROM: Mark McNeill, City Administrator SUBJECT: November Meeting Dates DATE: September 1, 2010 INTRODUCTION: The Council is asked to establish regular meeting dates for November, 2010. BACKGROUND: spy. Cfl~iSEP~i Earlier this summer, the City Council took action to set a special meeting for November 9t", at which time it will canvass the ballots from the November 2"d election. Council also needs to take formal action to reschedule the first regular meeting in November. Normally, that would be the day following the election, or Wednesday, November 3rd. However, doing that would mean that the Council would meet three weeks in a row, and then have three weeks before the next meeting. November has five Tuesdays. One way to avoid an extra meeting and to more evenly space out that month's meetings, would be to reschedule the regular meetings to the second and fourth Tuesdays -November 9t" (the date already scheduled for the canvassing meeting), and November 23rd RECOMMENDATION: I recommend that the regular meetings in November be changed from the first and third Tuesdays, to the second and fourth Tuesdays. RELATIONSHIP TO VISIONING: This supports goal F -Housekeeping. ACTION REQUIRED: If Council concurs, it should offer Resolution No. 7039, A Resolution Changing the November 2, 2010 City Council Meeting Date, and move its adoption. The action to make the November 16t" meeting official can be accommodated by Council taking action to adjourn the November 9t" meeting, to November 23rd Mark McNeill City Administrator RESOLUT{ON NO. 7039 A RESOLUTION CHANGING THE NOVEMBER 2, 2010 CITY COUNCIL MEETING DATE WHEREAS, the Shakopee City Code has set the first Tuesday of each month as the regular meeting date for the City Council; and WHEREAS, the Shakopee City Code allows the City Council to change the meeting date by adopting a resolution at least one week prior to the regularly scheduled meeting.
