16. REPORT REQUESTING CANCELLATION OF FIRST MEETINGS
IN DECEMBER
During the week of Thanksgiving, the employees have Thursday and
Friday off - working three days during that week. This presents
quite a problem in the City Clerk's office in having to attend
Council meetings, take minutes and then immediately having to
prepare for the next scheduled Council meeting.
The City Clerk recommended that beginning in 1989, Council cancel
the first scheduled meeting in December as an established policy.
There is a fifth Tuesday in 1988, so no meeting has to b~f
cancelled.. · · h
Councilwoman McCandliss, although not disputing the problem,
problem is a n nt r
would be no adverse benefits to the public since the Council can
schedule special meetings as needed..
MINUTES - 9 December l, 1987
MS (McCandliss/Nader) to refer back to staff for a more fully
developed report with alternatives. Motion failed (Councilmembers
Moore, Malcolm and Mayor Cox voted no)
MSC (Cox/Moore) to amend the recommendation to state that Council
cancel the first meeting after Thanksgiving. (Councilwoman
McCandliss voted no)
17. REPORT CONCEPT APPROVAL OF A TREE FARM PROPOSAL
ON CITY OWNED PROPERTY AT NORTHWEST CORNER
OF "H" STREET AND 1-80B
Assistant City Manager Asmus reported that Mr. Frank Ferreira has
expressed a verbal interest in utilizing the City owned property
at the northwest corner of "H" Street and 1-805 as a tree
nursery/farm as a part of his rather extensive tree nursery hobby
that he has been engaged in for some time. While it will be
necessary"'~6 "a~velop an agreement between the City and Mr.
Ferriera before the program could be implemented, the proposal on
its surface seems to offer a number of advantages to the City. He
recommended that Council approve the tree farm
