AGENDA REPORT

Honorable City Council
Deborah S. Traffenstedt, City Clerk X57
DATE: February 25, 1999 (CC Meeting of 3/3/99)
SUBJECT: CONSIDER RESCHEDULING JOINT CITY COUNCIL /PLANNING
COMMISSION AND JOINT CITY COUNCIL /PARKS AND RECREATION
COMMISSION MEETINGS IN MARCH 1999 AND POSTPONEMENT OF
CITIZEN RECOGNITION EVENT
BACKGROUND
The City Council at its meeting on January 20, 1999, directed staff
to schedule a joint City Council /Planning Commission meeting for
March 10, 1999 at 7:00 p.m and a City Council /Parks and Recreation
Commission meeting for March 31, 1999 at 7 :00 p.m. Mayor Hunter
and Councilmember Rodgers will not be able to attend a special
meeting on March 10. Staff is suggesting rescheduling the City
Council /Parks and Recreation Commission joint meeting to March 24
at 7:00 p.m and the City Council /Planning Commission joint meeting
to March 31, 1999 at 7:00 p.m.
DISCUSSION
The reason staff is suggesting the switching of the date for the
joint meeting with the Parks and Recreation Commission, is that the
Planning Commissioners' Institute begins on March 24; therefore,
that date is not available for a joint City Council/ Planning
Commission meeting. Staff has discussed the meeting schedule change
with the various Commissioners, and the change in meeting dates is
acceptable.
Although March 24 had previously been planned as the date for the
Citizen Recognition Event, staff and the Citizen Recognition Ad Hoc
Committee (Councilmembers Rodgers and Wozniak) are recommending
postponement of that event. The reasons for the postponement
include the need to reschedule the joint meeting between the City
Council and the Planning Commission, the fact that staff has
determined that insufficient funds were budgeted to host the
Citizen Recognition Event (approximately a $500 shortfall), and
that the City Clerk's Department currently has a shortage of staff
to adequately plan the event at this time. Staff intends to
schedule an Ad Hoc Committee meeting to address the budget for the

Citizen Recognition Event as well as to determine a revised date.

individuals that submitted nomination forms for Citizen of the
Year, as well as to all organizations and individuals that were
previously given notification of the original event date of March
24.
