Dixon City Council To Consider Moving Meeting Dates

DIXON, CA -- The dates that the City Council meets each month may be undergoing a change soon.

On Tuesday, May 14, the Council is expected to consider the idea of moving its meeting dates from the second and fourth Tuesdays of each month to the first and third Tuesdays.

The Council meeting is scheduled for 7 p.m. Tuesday at City Hall, 600 E A St., Dixon.

The reason for the proposed change, City Attorney Douglas White stated in a summary report on the matter, is that City Council members hold positions on various regional committees and subcommittees that meet the same nights at the City Council. Therefore, changing the Council's meeting dates would facilitate Councilmembers' and constituents ability to attend regional meetings on the second and fourth Tuesdays.

If the Council approves the ordinance by a majority vote, it will return for a second reading at the next regular meeting and go into effect in July. As a result, the city'sPlanning Commission would move its meeting date from the third Tuesday of the month to the second, and the Parks and Recreation Commission would shift its meetings from the first Tuesday of the month to the fourth.
