Background Discussion:
On June 1, 2015, the City Council enacted a process wherein a City Councilmember may make a request to the City Manager that an item not otherwise scheduled to be on an agenda be added to a future agenda. If the item is received by the City Manager prior to Wednesday noon of the week before the next Council meeting, the City Manager adds an agenda item to the Consent Calendar with the question of whether the suggested agenda item should be placed on the next regularly scheduled meeting as a discussion item. (Note: Depending on the nature of the item, or the amount and type of information needed for the Council discussion, a later meeting date may be selected by Council.) If the item is approved as part of the Consent Calendar, or is pulled and approved after discussion, it is then placed on the next agenda as a regular item unless Council authorizes a later meeting to consider the item.
Fiscal Impact: None
Prior Council Action: None
Alternatives: To not approve the request to consider this matter at an upcoming Council meeting.
