Item 1

Purpose
To adopt a Council meeting schedule for 2019/2020.
Strategic /
policy issues
The following directions contained in Maroondah 2040: Our
Future Together and the Council Plan 2017-2021 (Year 3: 2019-2020) provide the
strategic framework that underpins the purpose in this report.
Outcome Area: A well governed and empowered
community
Our Vision: Maroondah is an effectively
empowered community that is actively engaged in Council decision making through
processes that ensure their voice is heard and considered. Council
provides strong and responsive leadership, ensures transparent processes and works
with the community to advocate and champion their needs.
Key Directions 2019 – 2020:
8.1 Provide
enhanced governance that is transparent, accessible, inclusive and accountable
Background
Council, at its meeting on 14 November 2018, set the meeting
date for the Statutory Meeting of Council that culminates in the election of
the Mayor and Deputy Mayor on 13 November 2019. It is now necessary for Council
to also set Council meeting dates for the remainder of 2019 (November and
December) and for 2020 up to November, when an election for a new Mayor and
Deputy Mayor will occur.
Issue /
discussion
The proposed schedule is based upon the adopted practice of
one Council meeting per month, which is usually held on the third Monday,
dependent upon Public Holidays and other Council commitments.
The proposed Council meeting on Monday 1 June, is for the
sole purpose of adopting the Budget and Council Plan. The proposed Council
meeting on Monday 12 October, is for the sole purpose of adopting the Annual
Report.
