SUBJECT:
AMENDING 2010 COUNCIL MEETING SCHEDULE
RECOMMENDATION:
That the 2010 meeting schedule of Council and Standing Committees be amended by
changing the scheduled Council meeting from August 30, 2010 to Tuesday, September 7,
2010.
BACKGROUND:
Each year Council adopts a schedule for the following year’s Council and Standing Committees.
Any changes to that schedule requires a resolution of Council.
REPORT:
It has come the staff’s attention that there will be at least 2 members of Council unable to attend
the scheduled August 30, 2010 Council meeting. There are several factors adding to the
th
importance of the August 30 Council meeting: it will be the first meeting of Council following
the summer recess; the second last meeting of the current Council; and, the last meeting
before Council is in a ‘lame duck’ position. In consideration of these factors, the anticipated
amount of business that will be taking place at the meeting and the importance that all members
th
be present, it is being recommended that the August 30 meeting be moved to Tuesday
th
September 7.
FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS:
n/a
COMMUNICATIONS:
Should Council approve the recommendation to amend the schedule, notice will be sent to staff,
the meeting schedule on the City’s web site will be updated and the ‘up coming meetings’ notice
in Your Kitchener will reflect the new date.
