Town council votes for an earlier meeting start time

After years of an official start time of 7 p.m. for the Moraga Town Council regular meetings, members voted unanimously to approve an earlier 6:30 p.m. start time during its March 10 session. The purpose of the move is to ensure that items of importance are heard earlier in the evening.

The meetings are held on the second and fourth Wednesdays of each month in the Council Chambers located at 335 Rheem Blvd., Moraga (when not under COVID social distancing mandates). The public may currently view the meetings live on television or on the internet.

In addition to changing the start time, meetings - unless otherwise adjourned - will now be automatically adjourned at 10:30 p.m. rather than 11 p.m. The council could extend the automatic adjournment to 11 p.m., if necessary, through a majority vote. A further adjournment to postpone beyond 11 p.m. would require a unanimous consent not later than a specified time.

The new meeting time will take effect 30 days after adoption or when the town council holds its scheduled April 14 meeting.
