ity of iver ITEH 10.1. MEMORANDUM FROM: DATE: SUBJECT: Mayor & City Council Pat Klaers, City Adminis~rr December 16, 1996 Council Meeting Schedule A number of items need to be taken care of at this meeting regarding the City Council schedule. First, the City Council should consider canceling the fourth Monday of December meeting (December 23, 1996) as staff believes we can take care of all of the year end activities at the December 16, 1996, meeting. Unless the council wants to meet two days before Christmas, a motion should be made canceling this December 23, 1996, regular City Council meeting. The third Monday of February, 1997, is a holiday and we will soon be publishing public hearing notices for the planning issues to be reviewed at the February council meeting. It is recommended that the City Council call a special meeting for the third Tuesday of February (February 18) to deal with the regular council business that is typically conducted on the third Monday of each month. The council should note that this action has already been taken for the third Monday in January, and that the council has called a special meeting for Tuesday, January 21, 1997. An EDA worksession has been scheduled prior to the City Council meeting on January 6, 1997. The council has scheduled interviews for all the vacancies on the city's boards and commissions for their January 6th meeting. A large number of residents have applied for these vacancies and it is anticipated that the interviews will take about two hours. Following the interviews, the agenda calls for the 1996 annual report from Utilities General Manager Bryan Adams and this could take anywhere from 30 to 60 minutes. The interviews and annual report are in addition to the normal business that needs to be addressed. The question before the council at this meeting is if they would like to call their City Council meeting on January 6, 1997, for 7 p.m. instead of the regularly scheduled 6 p.m. As the EDA discussed on December 9, 1996, it may take them 3 hours to work through their economic development issues and they were hopeful that the meeting could be held from 4 to 7 p.m. rather than 3 to 6 p.m., or rather than trying to condense 3 hours of work into 2 hours from 4 to 6 p.m. Hopefully Councilmembers that 13065 Orono Parkway · P.O.
