CC - Approving Ordinance 769 - Box 065F)
TO: HONORABLE MAYOR
AND MEMBERS
ROSEMEAD CITY COUNCIL
FROM: FRANK G. TRIPEPI, CITY MANAGER
DATE: SEPTEMBER 5, 1996
RE: ORDINANCE NO. 769 - SPECIFYING THE REGULAR MEETINGS OF THE
ROSEMEAD CITY COUNCIL
Attached is Ordinance No. 769 which would change the Rosemead City Council's regular meeting
dates from the second and fourth Tuesday of the month to the fourth Tuesday of the month. Staff
is recommending that the Council approve the change to meeting once each month on a trial basis
through June 1997. As the Council is aware, there were two separate situations during the past few
months in which the City Council was able to meet only once during the month. The impact of that
change was minimal and staff is recommending that the plan be formalized during the aforementioned
trial period.
The City's routine functions, such as paying bills, would not be impacted by the proposed change in
meeting dates. The obvious benefit, however, would be in the time saved preparing agendas and the
additional free time during the evening hours for the members of the Council and staff. Should it
become necessary, the Council also retains the option of calling a special meeting to discuss urgent
business that cannot wait until the fourth Tuesday of the month.
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council approve Ordinance No. 769.
