COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
MEETING DATE: 06/06/2023 ITEM NO: 3
DATE: May 24, 2023
TO: Mayor and Town Council
FROM: Laurel Prevetti, Town Manager
SUBJECT: Approve Town Council Meeting Schedule for the 2023/2024 Fiscal Year
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends the Town Council approve the Town Council Meeting Schedule for the
2023/2024 Fiscal Year.
BACKGROUND:
Each year in June, the Town Council adopts the following fiscal year’s Town Council Meeting
Schedule, including any cancellations and/or meeting exceptions necessary.
DISCUSSION:
In 2004, the Town Council implemented the cancellation of its July meetings for a Summer
recess period. In 2005, Council implemented the cancellation of the first meeting in January
each year, primarily due to the light level of staffing with the annual year-end closure.
Additionally, on June 2, 2014, the Town Council approved and amended Los Gatos Town Code
Section 2.20.010 changing the regular Council meeting day from Mondays to Tuesdays,
effective August 2014.
Lastly, both regularly scheduled Council meetings have historically taken place each December,
even if the second meeting falls in close proximity to the holidays. For example, in past years
going back to 2009, meetings have taken place on December 20 and 21. Staff recommends the
current proposed Council meeting date of December 19, 2023 be approved inclusively with the
attached schedule.

CONCLUSION:
The attached schedule reflects the January 2024 cancellation referenced above, with remaining
dates reflective of the 1st and 3rd Tuesday schedule per Town Code. The attached schedule
does not show dates for any potential Council Retreat, Boards/Commissions Interviews, or
Special Meetings of the Town Council. In past years, Retreats have generally been held as-
needed, and Special Meetings are held throughout the year on an as-needed basis.
Staff recommends that the Town Council approve the proposed regular Town Council Meeting
Schedule for the 2023/2024 Fiscal Year.
