Summary

The commission voted to hold regular meetings on the 2nd Monday of each month, rather than every other month; staff said meetings may be canceled if no items are scheduled and that commissioners will receive a calendar placeholder.

Commissioners voted to adopt a monthly meeting cadence on the 2nd Monday, with the caveat that staff may cancel scheduled meetings when there are no agenda items. The motion to hold monthly meetings passed by roll call and was reported as 5-0.

Staff said the proposed monthly schedule aims to reduce the need for special meetings when the workload increases but that cancellations are possible when there is no business. Chair Tabler and other commissioners discussed tradeoffs: regular monthly placeholders make scheduling predictable, while every-other-month scheduling can require calling special meetings when business stacks up.
