The council will meet in closed session beginning at 5:15 p.m. Thursday, Sept. 22, in the council chambers at Clearlake City Hall, 14050 Olympic Drive, to discuss appointing an interim city administrator before convening in open session at 6 p.m.
The city has not yet identified the individual it is considering for the position, which currently is being held temporarily by Bob Galusha, also the city's engineer.
The council has worked through the summer to find and agree upon a candidate, after its initial selection was offered the job but later backed out in June, as Lake County News has reported.
If the council agrees on the candidate they will consider the final contract in open session at Thursday's meeting, according to City Clerk Melissa Swanson.
In other business, the council will consider adopting a resolution requesting that Gov. Jerry Brown declare a statewide emergency because of invasive Dreissenid mussels – specifically, quagga and zebra mussels – which have infested some Southern California water bodies.
The proposed resolution follows similar actions taken recently by the Board of Supervisors and the Lakeport City Council.
The council also will discuss a proposed ordinance to change city rules to allow dogs in parks, consider a response to the Lake County Grand Jury and hear a presentation by Clearlake Police Chief Craig Clausen.
