Re: SETTING A DATE FOR THE FIRST MEETING IN OCTOBER
ISSUE
Should the Honorable Mayor and City Commission set the first meeting in October on October
2, 1996?
BACKGROUND
The City Charter provides that the City Commission will meet at such times as may be
prescribed by ordinance or resolution and the City Code provides that the City Commission will
meet on the first and third Tuesday of each month and such other meetings as may be called for
by resolution. The West Oaks Mall Grand Opening Gala has been announced for Tuesday,
October 1, presenting a scheduling conflict for the entire Commission unless Commission
chooses to reschedule the first regular meeting in October to October 2. In the past, meetings
have been rescheduled to avoid bringing citizens out in inclement weather(hurricanes) and when
the regular meeting night falls on a national holiday (Independence Day and Labor Day).
DISCUSSION
There are as yet no public hearings advertised for the October 1 meeting and with this much
advance notice it would be possible to calendar any such public hearings as may be needed for
October 2 instead. Although Commission meetings have not been rescheduled in the past to
accommodate other functions, it may be argued that this is an occasion of sufficient magnitude
to warrant such action.
RECOMMENDATION
It is respectfully recommended that the Honorable Mayor and City Commission adopt Resolution
No. 96-21, cancelling the regular meeting scheduled for Tuesday, October 1 and calling a
regular meeting for Wednesday, October 2, 1996.
