Change in Attendance Policy - City Board Meetings

Good Afternoon,

This is just an FYI that the Commission approved a change in the City’s Board attendance policy from 25% of meetings to 20% of regularly scheduled meetings, which became effective July 10^th. Section 2-83.1 of the Lake Worth Code of Ordinances, now states,

“If any member of the board shall fail to be present at three (3) consecutive regularly scheduled meetings or at twenty (20) percent of the regularly scheduled meetings of the board held within any 12-month period, the city clerk shall declare the member's office vacant, and the city
commission shall promptly fill such vacancy.”

You will not see the change online in Municode until the next code supplement is released, in about a month. I’ve attached Ordinance 2008-14 for your records. Have a great day!

Sincerely,

Crystal Hall

Deputy City Clerk

City of Lake Worth
