Item No. 20 <br />memorandum <br />TO: City Council <br />John Godwin, City Manager <br />FROM: Janice Ellis, City Clerk <br />SUBJECT: CHANGE FOR MEETING DATE IN MAY <br />DATE: March 6, 2017 <br />BACKGROUND: Texas Election Code Section 67.003(a) requires the canvass of the City's <br />General Election be conducted between May 9 and May 17, 2017. <br />STATUS OF ISSUE: May 8 and May 22 are regular scheduled meeting dates. City staff <br />proposes rescheduling the meeting date of May 8 to May 15. Changing the meeting date will <br />allow for canvass of the bond election and administering of oaths to new Council Members, <br />which falls within the time period prescribed by the State for canvassing the election. <br />BUDGET: N/A <br />RECOMMENDATION: Approve change for the first city council meeting date in May from <br />May 8 to May 15. <br />
