body
Summary
To improve attendance and streamline the administration of committee meetings, a schedule of future meeting dates will be developed for the upcoming fiscal year. The committee may discuss the proposed schedule, make any changes it deems appropriate, or adopt the schedule as presented.
DISCUSSION
Background
Attached is a copy of the Measure A Citizens’ Advisory Committee Council Policy. Section 3 addresses meeting requirements and committee member attendance (Attachment A). The City Council Policy Manual also includes attendance requirements in Chapter 3.03, Attendance Policy for Appointees (Attachment B).
Staff recommends establishing a quarterly meeting schedule for Wednesdays at 4:00 - 5:00 p.m. for the remainder of Fiscal Year 2026-27 as follows:
• February 10, 2027 (New Chair and Vice Chair assume roles)
• May 26, 2027 (Tentative, pending completion of the Proposal Budget)
• September 29, 2027
• October 27, 2027 (Election of Chair and Vice Chair)
The proposed schedule is subject to change with appropriate action by the Committee. Changes may be necessary for various reasons, including business needs, scheduling conflicts, or the need to convene for special meetings.
For background purposes, the Committee has historically met three to four times per year. Therefore, if a regularly scheduled quarterly meeting is determined to be unnecessary, the Committee may cancel the meeting.
The City Clerk’s Office continues its recruitment efforts to fill committee vacancies and improve meeting attendance. Establishing a set meeting schedule may also assist with recruiting new committee members by providing greater predictability and advance notice of meeting dates.
Staff recommends that the Committee adopt the proposed meeting schedule, which establishes quarterly meetings for the Measure A Citizens’ Advisory Committee for the remainder of Fiscal Year 2026-27.
