Council to discuss starting meetings at 6 p.m. for standing round table
Summary
Staff proposed regularly starting council business at 6 p.m. to allow a standing round table or executive session before the regular 7 p.m. meeting. Councilmembers asked for the item to be discussed at the next council meeting so all seven members can weigh in.
City staff proposed that the council regularly begin at 6:00 p.m. to use the hour before the 7:00 p.m. regular meeting for round tables or, when needed, executive sessions.
The proposal was presented as a discussion item under finance and administration. The chair asked, “How does the 06:00 start sound?” and Councilmember Kara replied, “It works for me.” Staff said they would bring the topic to the full council so all seven members can provide feedback.
Councilmembers noted scheduling constraints and said they would review availability before the next meeting. No formal change to the meeting schedule was made; the council directed staff to include the start‑time discussion on the next council agenda.
