Council votes to resume two meetings per month for near-term workload
Summary
To manage a heavy agenda, Linn Valley council voted to return to two monthly meetings (2nd and 4th Mondays at 6 p.m.) on a temporary basis; council discussed using workshops for deep-dive items versus formal meetings.
The Linn Valley City Council voted to return to two meetings per month (the 2nd and 4th Mondays at 6 p.m.) for a period of time to handle an increased workload.
Mayor (speaker 1) argued the council needed an additional meeting slot "because there's a lot going on" and that it would help the council avoid excessively long single meetings. Council discussion covered whether workshops could substitute for meetings; speaker 3 noted workshops do not permit formal action, which could delay approval of items like a water ordinance.
After discussion, the council approved the schedule change by voice vote; some members expressed concern about meeting frequency and overlap with workshops, but no change to workshop rules was made at this meeting.
