BACKGROUND
City Charter section 1003 states that each of the boards and commissions of the City shall hold regular meetings as required by ordinance. City Code section 2.120.030 states that each board or commission shall hold regular meetings at the times and on the days indicated by resolution of the City Council, and that such resolution may be amended from time to time by further Council resolution. Resolution No. 5195 (Attachment 1), which was adopted by the City Council in 1987, states that the Senior Advisory Commission shall hold meetings on the fourth Monday of each month at 10:00 a.m.
DISCUSSION

A proposed resolution, which would amend the previously adopted Resolution 5195 in regards to the Senior Advisory Commission scheduling of regular meetings is attached to this report (Attachment 3) for Council consideration.
