Mayor Wilmarth noted he felt that with the new Councilmembers now on board,
there was a need to allow more time for informal discussion. He suggested
Council return to the 5:30 p.m. meeting time for a period of time.
Councilmember Cassell made a motion, seconded by Councilmember Knezovich, to
adjourn this meeting to 5:30 p.m. on August 18 because the Ordinance will
need to be amended to make this change permanently.
Councilmember Horak spoke against the motion and suggested meeting infor-
mally from 5:30 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. and continuing to begin the regular
meetings at 6:30 p.m. This would still allow the audience to attend the
whole meeting uninterrupted.

dinner from 6:00 p.m. - 7:00 p.m, and beginning the regular meetings at
7:00 p.m. with Citizen Participation.
