body
HEARING REQUIRED: No Hearing Required
SUMMARY:
Currently the Parks and Recreation Board meets on the third Thursday of the month beginning at 8:00 a.m.
The Board discussed the possibility of moving the meeting date and time with a desire to make more timely input available to City Council for agenda items and Council meetings; also in the hopes of providing for a time frame that would allow for greater public input and participation.
A review of available dates and times was made by Council staff. The initial request for Parks and Recreation Board consideration was a move to the third Tuesday of the month beginning at 2:00 p.m. When the item was discussed, due to some scheduling conflicts, an amendment was proposed to move the time from 2:00 p.m. to 10:00 a.m. This motion and the item passed on a vote of 8-0 with one member absent.
Based on the Parks and Recreation Board recommendation/request, the item before Council is the consideration of permitting the change to the third Tuesday of the month beginning at 10:00 a.m.
