Agenda 01/10/2023 Item #10A (Recommendation to adjust the Board's calendar by eliminating the summer recess and thus provide for year round meetings)10.A 01 / 10/2023 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Recommendation to adjust the Board's calendar by eliminating the summer recess and thus provide for year-round meetings. OBJECTIVE: To better serve the people of Collier County. CONSIDERATION: The Board has for many years taken a summer recess. After the first meeting of July, the Board would then not hold a Regular Meeting until September. To better serve the people of Collier County, I would like to do away with the summer recess and hold two regular meetings in July and August. The current meeting schedule for November and December, when we hold only one meeting on the second Tuesday of the month, would continue. FISCAL IMPACT: The proposed action would add three meetings to the Board's calendar. Each meeting has discrete costs that include court reporting, CCSO security, meeting advertising, packet printing and hybrid meeting set up with an estimated cost of approximately $7,500 to $10,500. Staff cost is incurred with or without the three additional meetings though the brief break allows for key staff to take vacation and provides time for planning and other organizational development activities. GROWTH MANAGEMENT IMPACT: There is no Growth Management impact associated with this Executive Summary. LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS: This item has been reviewed by the County Attorney, is approved as to form and legality, and requires majority vote for approval. -JAK RECOMMENDATION: That the Board of County Commissioners adjusts the Board's calendar to eliminate the summer recess and thus provide for year-round meetings.
