Attached is a proposed list of Work Session and City Council Meeting dates for 2006. These dates will be finalized at the December 12, 2005, City Council Meeting by resolution. Three legal holidays fall on dates that would otherwise be considered Council meetings— New Years Day (in accordance with Section 3.10 of the Personnel Manual New Years Day is observed on Monday, January 2, 2006), Labor Day (September 4, 2006), and Christmas (December 25, 2006). For these dates, the schedule reflects a Tuesday meeting date. Staff has also scheduled one Special City Council Meeting for 2006 on Thursday, November 9, 2006, to canvass the 2006 Election Results. Staff would also like to discuss with the City Council about Council availability for the 2006 City Council Staff Retreat. Normally, the City has conducted this retreat at a Work Session. Please review the Work Session calendar (attached), and direct staff on what dates would work for the City Council. In addition to a City Council Staff Retreat, Staff recommends scheduling a discussion on Meeting Administration and Protocol. This can be scheduled at any Work Session. Staff recommends this discussion either on the January or February Work Session. Respectfully Submitted, Desaree Crane
