The Monroe City Council recessed its March 11 meeting after officials determined there was no quorum and set a reconvening for March 18 at 6 p.m. at Monroe City Hall.
A council member moved to recess the meeting and to reconvene at Monroe City Hall on March 18 at 6 p.m.; the motion was seconded. The presiding officer then declared the motion unanimous and concluded the meeting. As the speaker said, "there be no quorum of city council present, business may not be conducted."
Because a quorum was not present, the council did not take up any agenda business at the March 11 session. The recess means items on the March 11 agenda will be considered when the council reconvenes on March 18 at 6 p.m. at Monroe City Hall, unless otherwise announced by the council.
The brief proceedings began at 6:00 p.m. on March 11 and ended after the recess motion was approved. No votes on ordinances, resolutions, appointments, contracts, or other substantive matters were recorded during the session.
