Title
Action To Set Future Commission Meeting Dates
Report
BACKGROUND
Charter Section 702 requires the Salary Setting Commission (Commission) to set the compensation of the Mayor and Council prior to March 15, 2019 and thereafter, every two years. The Charter provision also provides that salaries so established by the Commission shall not exceed one hundred ten percent (110%) of the previous figure.
DISCUSSION
The Commission will meet as often as necessary to conduct its business and set compensation rates prior to the dates designated in the City Charter and City Code.
Given the Charter deadline of March 15, 2019 for setting of Mayor and Council salaries, and the availability of the Council Chamber, staff identified possible dates listed below with meetings set at 7:00 pm in the Council Chamber:
January 17, 22, 27, 30
February 4, 11, 12, 13, 14, 20, 21, 25, 26, 28
March 4, 14
