Item No: 07C <br />Meeting Date: December 14, 2015 <br />Type of Business: CB <br />Administrator Review : ____ <br />City of Mounds View Staff Report <br /> To: Honorable Mayor and City Council <br /> From: Desaree Crane, Assistant City Administrator <br /> <br /> Item Title/Subject: Resolution 8491, Setting the 2016 City Council Meeting <br />Dates, Council/Staff Retreat, and the Town Hall Meeting <br /> <br /> <br />Discussion: <br /> <br />Based on the Council’s schedule of conducting meetings, Work Sessions are normally <br />scheduled for the first Monday of each month and Council meetings on the second and <br />fourth Mondays of each month. Attached is a proposed list of Work Session and City <br />Council Meeting dates for 2016 (Exhibit A). <br /> <br />The following legal holidays fall on dates that would otherwise be considered Council <br />Meetings: Independence Day (July 4, 2016), Labor Day (September 5, 2016), and City <br />observed Christmas Holiday (Monday, December 26, 2016). For these dates, the schedule <br />reflects a Tuesday. <br /> <br />In addition to setting the official calendar, the Council/Staff Retreat and the Town Hall <br />Meeting will need to be scheduled for 2016. Last year, the Staff/Council Retreat was <br />scheduled on a Tuesday (Feb 10th). If the City Council wishes to continue having the <br />Staff/Council Retreat in February, then Staff would recommend having the retreat on <br />Monday, February 29th (5th Monday of February). In the past, the Council/Staff Retreat was <br />located at the Mounds View Community Center from 6pm to 10pm. <br /> <br />In regard to the Town Hall Meeting, Staff recommends scheduling the meeting for either <br />Monday, March 21, 2016, or Monday, April 18, 2016. Scheduling the Town Meeting on <br />either dates will allow enough time for Staff to prepare a presentation from the decisions <br />made during the Council/Staff retreat. Town Hall Meeting will be located at Mounds View <br />City Hall, starting a 6pm. <br /> <br />Recommendation: <br /> <br />Please advise Staff on which dates would work best for the Council/Staff Retreat. Staff will <br />add the Council/Staff Retreat date to Exhibit A of Resolution 8491 after this meeting. <br /> <br />Respectfully Submitted, <br /> <br />_____________________________ <br />Desaree Crane <br /> <br />
