TO REACH THE MAYOR AND ENTIRE CITY COUNCIL:
Send email to MayorCouncil@AmesCityCouncil.org
(Note that emails to elected officials are generally subject to Iowa Open Records requests)

 

A special meeting of the Ames City Council is taking place tomorrow (Saturday), Feb. 6th, 9:00am, at City of Ames Water Plant at 1800 E. 13th Street in its east and west conference rooms.  If you'd like to attend, enter through the main entrance and look for signage. As is usually the case, this meeting is workshop-style, off-site, and is not a Zoom meeting. We'll probably meet until at least the early afternoon. The agenda is a single item: Council Goals Update. Under this broad topic, we'll discuss the state of our established City Council Goals for 2020-2021. An important bit of context is that we approved these goals on February 25, 2020, and the very next day, we received an email from the City Manager on February 26 informing us that the City was beginning to deliberate how it will respond to a possible pandemic. Needless to say, our immediate priorities shifted. 

 

At our goals update meeting, we'll discuss where we are, consider alternatives, and examine our decision-making process and effectiveness. The Council won't take actions during this meeting; any actions coming out of our discussions will be taken up in a future meeting when the agenda can properly identify the action being considered.
