SUBJ: 1991 Meeting Schedule �Q IZ-
I have reviewed the 1991 City Council meeting schedule and if the
Council wishes to stay on our current meeting night (2nd and 4th
11 Mondays) , I recommend the following changes:
- May: Memorial Day falls on May 27th, which is the fourth
Monday of the month. As April has five Mondays, I would
I recommend that the meeting schedule be changed to the
first and third Mondays of May which will keep the
meetings on the every other week schedule.
II - November: Veteran's Day is November 11th and the second
Monday of the month. The Council could change the
I meeting dates to the first and third Monday, which will
result in Council meetings two weeks in a row (October 28
and November 4) . Another option would be to meet another
evening during that week.
I - December: Typically the Council only has one meeting in
December which is the second Monday of the month
II (December 9th) .

The Council may want to consider other options, such as: I
Meeting on another night of the week. We would have to
take into consideration the meeting schedules of other
commissions. As the Planning Commission agendas tend to
be quite large, we would not want the Council and
Planning Commission meeting during the same week (the
Planning Commission meets the first and third Wednesdays
of each month) . It is difficult to prepare both
Planning Commission and City Council agendas during the
same week. For your information, the Park and Recreation
Commission meets the fourth Tuesday of each month, the
HRA meets the third Thursday of every month and the
Public Safety Commission meets the second Thursday of
each month.
Changing the meeting time. The Council may want to
consider meeting earlier on Mondays, i.e. 4: 00 p.m. The
agenda would be reversed from our current format - staff
items would be presented first (from 4: 00 - 5:00) and
public items would be presented last (5:00 - 7: 00) to - II
allow residents an opportunity to attend after work.
Staff members usually stay at City Hall during the time
between 4:30 p.m. and the start of the Council meeting
anyway, so I do not foresee a problem with their
schedules.
These ideas are presented as "food for thought". Councilman Wing
is also a member of the Chanhassen Fire Department which meets
every Monday night. Although Councilman Wing has not asked us to
• change the meeting schedule, I thought you might want to review
some other options.
