Recommended Action
Adopt a resolution approving the 2026 Regular Library Board of Trustees Meeting Calendar.
Executive Summary
Staff are asking the Library Board of Trustees to approve the 2026 schedule for regular Library
Board of Trustees meetings.
The Library Board of Trustees establishes its regular meeting schedule annually by resolution.
Adopting the calendar by resolution meets the requirements of the state’s open meeting law,
the Brown Act (California Government Code Section 54954(a)) and provides the Library Board
of Trustees with the opportunity to increase notification to the public of its scheduled regular
meetings.
Special meetings can still be called as needed by providing 24-hour notice before the time of
the special meeting.
Regular Library Board of Trustees meetings have been scheduled to take place at 4 p.m. in the
Council Chamber at City Hall at 1200 Carlsbad Village Drive.
Explanation & Analysis
None.
Fiscal Analysis
No financial impact.
