Item No: 07G Meeting Date: December 14, 2009 Type of Business: CB Administrator Review : ____ City of Mounds View Staff Report To: Honorable Mayor and City Council From: Desaree Crane, Assistant City Clerk-Administrator Item Title/Subject: Resolution 7544, Setting the 2010 City Council Meeting Dates, Staff Retreat, and the 2010 Town Hall Meeting. Discussion: Based on the Council’s schedule of conducting meetings, Work Sessions are normally scheduled for the first Monday of each month and Council meetings on the second and fourth Mondays of each month. Attached is a proposed list of Work Session and City Council Meeting dates for 2010. Two legal holidays fall on dates that would otherwise be considered Council meetings— Independence Day (Observed on Monday, July 5, 2010), and Labor Day (September 6, 2010). For these dates, the schedule reflects a Tuesday. In addition to setting the official calendar, Staff would like to discuss dates for the Council/Staff Retreat and the Town Hall Meeting. Due to the costs associated with preparing and conducting a Town Hall Meeting (see attached memo dated May 20, 2009), Staff and the City Council expressed a desire to relocate the Town Hall Meeting to City Hall, and schedule the Town Hall Meeting on a weekday night. In the past, the Town Hall Meeting was located at the Mounds View Community Center, and normally scheduled on the last Saturday in April. If the City Council wishes to schedule the Town Hall Meeting for a weekday night, then Staff would recommend starting the Town Hall Meeting at 7pm to be consistent with most City meetings. The following below are possible dates for the Town Hall Meeting. March 2010 April 2010 Tuesday, March 9 Tuesday, April 6 Tuesday, March 16 Tuesday, April 13 Tuesday, March 23 Tuesday, April 20 Wednesday, March 24 Tuesday, April 27 Monday, March 29 Wednesday, April 28 Tuesday, March 30 Wednesday, March 31
