Previous to the 4th <br />Monday meeting, the council elects to hold a one -hour no action work session to review that evening's council <br />agenda. This month, the council agenda is very light and the mayor requested that a message be sent to the council <br />that the pre - council work session is canceled, basically due to lack of business. A council member has responded <br />by questioning the mayor's authority to cancel a meeting. We are a charter city. I've reviewed our city charter and <br />code of ordinances as they relate to council procedure and am not clear on the mayor's authority to cancel this <br />meeting. Please advise if the League has any advice on this question. If our code and charter language in this area is <br />needed, please let me know. Thank you. <br />6/23/2008 <br />
