Memorandum by the Chief Executive Officer

To Council:

This memorandum requests that Council approve an amendment to the schedule of meetings for 2024.

Local government elections were held on 14 September 2024, with results declared on 1 and 2 October 2024.

The Chief Executive Officer has been requested to prepare a two-week meeting cycle (Council Committees and Council) rather than the previously endorsed three-week meeting cycle (Council Briefings, Committees and Council).

It is anticipated that relevant Council briefings will now be held as part of Council Committees, which will be scheduled to commence earlier to accommodate this update.

Accordingly, the 2024 schedule of meetings has been amended to reflect this change.

The City's website will be updated with amended 2024 meeting dates if endorsed by Council.

Additional Councillor workshop sessions, intended to accommodate such matters as external presentations, professional development and other non-meeting agenda items, will be scheduled and separately distributed to Councillors as required.
