Certain of these requirements have been suspended by Paragraph 3 of Executive Order N-29-20, executed by the Governor of California on March 17, 2020, to mitigate the spread of Coronavirus (COVID-19). In particular, the Executive Order suspends that provision of the Brown Act that requires noticing, posting of agendas, and public access to each location where a member will be participating telephonically, as well as provisions that require physical presence of members of the legislative body or the public for purposes of a quorum or to hold a meeting. Executive Order N-29-20 allows an agency to conduct a teleconference meeting that provides members of the public telephonic or other electronic participation in place of making a physical location for the public to observe the meeting and provide public comment, consistent with other provisions of the Brown Act. \\cvcfilv01\administration$\Administration\CLERK\Agenda\SHRTSLV\ShirtsleeveZoomagn.docx 11/12/2020 3:36 PM CITY COUNCIL SHIRTSLEEVE AGENDA NOVEMBER 24, 2020 PAGE TWO For information regarding this Agenda please contact: Jennifer Cusmir City Clerk Telephone: (209) 333-6702 Informal Informational Meeting A.
