| 1 | 15.1 | Amendment to Council Rule Regarding Absences | CC- Report | REPORT - AMENDMENT TO COUNCIL MANUAL OF PROCEDURES AND PROTOCOLS REGARDING ABSENCES FROM MEETINGS
BACKGROUND: Rule I.F. of the City Council Manual of Procedures and Protocols provides that “[i]f a Councilmember is absent without Council permission from all regular City Council meetings for thirty (30) days consecutively from the last regular meeting he/she attends, his/her office becomes vacant and shall be filled as any other vacancy.”
