body
Prepared by: Vice Mayor Liz Wynn 713-4400 ext. 9313.
Department Recommendation: Vice Mayor Liz Wynn requests that the City Council approve adding an item to a future special City Council meeting agenda. The purpose of the item is to have a discussion on the possibility of suspending some or all of the Tulare Avenue Major Street Rehabilitation project and directing that a redesign of some or all of the project be completed before proceeding.
Summary:
Vice Mayor Liz Wynn seeks Council consideration of suspension of some or all of the Tulare Avenue Major Street Rehabilitation project and directing staff to redesign the applicable portions of the project before proceeding. Due to the project's grant-related deadlines, this discussion would need to take place at a future special meeting rather than a regular Council meeting.
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.
