Information
Title:
Reschedule Tuesday, August 13 City Council Meeting to Tuesday, August 6, 2019
Purpose/Background:
Purpose: To discuss changing the date of the first Council meeting in August.
Background: The regular City Council meeting date of Tuesday, August 13, 2019, was rescheduled to Monday, August 12, because of the Primary Election. Staff is asking Council to consider moving the meeting up one week, to Tuesday, August 6, to allow some upgrades to be scheduled for the Council Chambers. QCTV is providing upgrades to the four member cities Council Chambers and they need approximately 18 days to complete the upgrade. If Council could reschedule their August 13 meeting to August 6, the upgrade work could begin on August 7, and that would allow 16 days without meetings in the Chambers and QCTV is hoping that will be enought time to get all or a majority of the work completed before the Council meeting of August 27.
If Council is amenable to changing the meeting date to August 6, a Consent Item will be placed on the June 25, 2019, Council Agenda asking for formal approval to change the date. The rescheduled date would also be noted at the end of the meeting under Mayor/Council/Staff Input and the City's meeting calendars would be updated to reflect the change. It should be noted as well that the month of July has five Tuesdays; therefore, there would be a couple weeks in between the scheduled meetings - even with moving the one up a week.
If changing the date to August 6, does not work for all, or most, the alternative would be to leave the previously scheduled August 12th date, however, the meeting would not be cablecast.
This schedule does conflict with the August EDA and the EPB meetings; however, they will move their meetings to the Lake Itasca Room for August and that one meeting for each Commission will not be cablecast.
