Executive Summary

Council is asked to adopt the annual rules of procedure and quorum - order of business.

 

Background

Section 3.03 of the City Charter, Procedure of Council, states the Council shall determine its own rules and order of business.  No changes are being recommended at this time.

 

There has been discussion regarding amending the start time of Council meetings from 7:30PM to 7:00PM and moving Council workshops to 5:30PM.  A review of peer cities shows the majority begin at 7:00PM.  If that is something Council wishes to proceed with staff would bring forward an ordinance amendment at the next meeting for consideration.
