Memo ID #2021160
This memorandum provides an update on the status of city meetings due to the COVID-19
pandemic through September 2021.
Background
Per California Executive Order N-29-20, and in the interest of public health and safety, city council
meetings and other public meetings have been held virtually since March 2020. In June 2021,
in-person meetings resumed until August when positive COVID-19 cases began to increase. On
Aug. 17, 2021, city meetings returned to a virtual format;
Discussion
Due to the current COVID-19 situation, all meetings will remain virtual through the month of
September. This includes City Council Meetings, Boards and Commissions Meetings and other
public meetings. Outdoor events where social distancing is possible may continue for the time
being.
Next Steps
This determination will be re-evaluated mid-September and the format for public meetings will
follow the recommendations of state or local health officials at that time.
