From: Ryan Reynolds, HP Staff ' "‘*■0
Subject: 2010 Historic Preservation Meeting and Agenda Cut -off "It
• P
Schedule
BACKGROUND & JUSTIFICATION:
The Seward City Code states the Historic Preservation Commission shall meet at least twice
each year.
To allow for proper public notice all Public Hearing items must be presented to staff three
weeks prior to any meeting and regular business items must be presented two weeks prior to any
meeting. The Historic Preservation Meeting Agenda must be presented to the City Clerk for
publication two Monday's before any public meeting. The attached schedule and agenda cut -off
dates reflex these requirements.
Special meetings may be held at the call of the chair or the city manager, and at such other
times as the Commission may determine necessary. Work sessions may also be scheduled as needed.
Both special meetings and work sessions must also meet the public notice requirements.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that the Commission schedule regular, monthly Work Sessions on the 3rd
Wednesday of each month, except when New Business or Action Items require a Regular Meeting.
