RECOMMENDATION:
recommendation
That City Council schedule a standing “business” workshop to be held, if needed, on the second Agenda Conference meeting day of the month.

body
HEARING REQUIRED: No Hearing Required
SUMMARY:
This item will provide for the yearly scheduling of a “business” workshop to be held, when needed, on the second meeting day of the month. In those months where there is one scheduled meeting date, the workshop will be scheduled for what would normally be the second meeting day.
This will give the Council an opportunity to discuss items within a workshop setting, for the possible inclusion on upcoming agendas. It will also provide administration a mechanism for bringing items to the Council for their discussion and potential public input, such as Port Lease Notifications, within a workshop setting - which is consistent with Council’s Rules and Procedures.
While the workshops will be previously scheduled, if there is nothing to be brought forward at the time, they can be cancelled. Having them pre-schedule eliminates the struggles with trying to find an acceptable (available) date for workshops.
