Beaman council adopts ordinance changing meeting days and times
Summary
The Beaman City Council unanimously adopted ORD 177 on Jan. 15 to change council meeting days and times after waiving the second and third readings; the ordinance becomes effective upon posting.
The Beaman City Council approved and adopted Ordinance 177 on Jan. 15 to change the council’s meeting day and time. Council member Brandon Schleisman introduced the ordinance; after a first reading the council voted to waive the second and third readings and then approved the ordinance by a 4–0 vote (Brockman, Rego, Scafferi, Schleisman). The ordinance will take effect upon posting.
Council minutes record that the motions to waive additional readings and to adopt ORD 177 were each seconded and carried with four ayes. The council did not record any formal amendments to the ordinance during the meeting.
Why it matters: Changing meeting dates or times affects when the public can attend and when agenda items will be considered. The council’s waiver of additional readings accelerated the ordinance’s adoption and set a new schedule without further public readings recorded in the minutes.
The council did not specify the new meeting schedule text in the minutes excerpt; the ordinance becomes effective upon posting and the city clerk is responsible for making the effective ordinance available to the public.
