Proposal to switch to three-week meeting cycle fails unanimously
Summary
A motion to adopt a trial three-week meeting schedule beginning July 2, 2025 failed on a 0-5 vote after concerns that it could lengthen meetings and reflect poorly on commissioners.
Commissioner John Alsop moved to approve a trial 'Three-Week' meeting schedule beginning July 2, 2025; Commissioner Scott Seekins seconded the motion. Commissioner Robert Sezak said he was not in favor, arguing the change "reflected poorly on the Commissioners and it may make meetings longer." The motion failed on a 0-5 vote (Resolution 25-80).
Commissioners discussed potential downstream impacts on warrant timing for vendors and on staff workload. Alsop said he would withdraw support if approving the schedule produced extra work to authorize warrants, but commissioners ultimately opposed the trial schedule and no change was adopted.
