Annual Council Meeting Calendar
In reviewing the Council’s workshop and regular meeting schedule for 2011, I find that we only have th one holiday that will conflict with their schedule this year. Monday, December 26 is a scheduled holiday for city employees. Historically, the Council has cancelled the last workshop and regular council meeting in November and December because of City Council holiday travel conflicts, etc. Once the council has confirmed their meeting schedule for November and December, staff will be able to plan accordingly and publish changes, etc.
