Executive Summary The Carlsbad Municipal Code (CMC) established a Housing Commission to advise the City Council on housing related matters. CMC Chapter 2.40 states the Housing Commission shall meet regularly, on days and times established by the commission for the transaction of business. The Housing Commission is being asked to set the 2023 regular meeting schedule. Discussion The Housing Commission establishes its regular meeting schedule annually by Resolution. In September 2021, the Housing Commission voted to hold meetings at 6 p.m. on the 2nd Thursday of the month based on work schedules of some members. City staff is bringing this up for Housing Commission discussion because recently, city staff experienced challenges filling the senior citizen tenant vacancy. Several potential applicants did comment that they were not able to participate in person if meetings were in the evening. The Housing Commission is being asked to set the 2023 regular meeting schedule. If 6 p.m. is still the desired time by consensus of the Housing Commission, staff recommends the Housing Commission set the 2023 meeting schedule for the following Thursdays at 6:00 p.m.: January 12, 2023 February 9, 2023 March 16, 2023 April 13, 2023 May 11, 2023 June 8, 2023 August 10, 2023 September 14, 2023 October 12, 2023 December 14, 2023 Jan. 12, 2023 Item #1 Page 1 of 4 In addition to the above regular meetings, special meetings of the Housing Commission can be called as necessary. Fiscal Analysis There is no fiscal impact by this action. Environmental Evaluation Pursuant to Public Resources Code Section 21065, this action does not constitute a “project” within the meaning of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) in that it has no potential to cause either a direct physical change in the environment, or a reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment, and therefore does not require environmental review.

Brown Act and it was available for public viewing and review at least 72 hours before the scheduled meeting date.
