Redlands City Council Meeting May Be Postponed

A problem with the timely posting of the council agenda has prompted Redlands to postpone tonight’s council meeting, according to Mayor Pete Aguilar.

The mayor sent out the warning through Twitter about 10:30 a.m.

The Tweet reads: “Agenda was not posted in accordance with the brown act. Mtg tomorrow - 5pm/6pm.”

Known as the Ralph M. Brown Act, the law governs most of California’s meetings and is meant to ensure public access. Among the provisions is that meetings be publicly noticed 72 hours or more before they are held. Special meetings can be noticed 24 hours before their scheduled time.

Tonight's meeting was rescheduled to a special meeting for tomorrow, said Carl Baker, spokesman for the city.

Closed session will begin at 5 p.m., followed by the public session at 6 p.m., Baker said. The agenda remains unchanged and may be viewed on the City’s website or at the City Clerk’s Office at 35 Cajon St.
