Concord City Council meeting for March 12 cancelled

In light of public health concerns related to coronavirus (COVID-19) and in compliance with State and County recommendations for social distancing, the City of Concord is postponing its March 12 Special City Council meeting. City staff are evaluating options that allow for essential City meetings to continue in a way that is consistent with public health guidelines.

The March 12 meeting agenda item entitled “the City’s response to Lennar’s letter of January 17, 2020 related to the Reuse Project at the former Concord Naval Weapons Station” has been postponed. The tentative new date is Tuesday, March 24.

Concord’s city manager and city attorney are now exploring how the municipality will continue to do business in the wake of California Gov. Gavin Newsom’s executive order that allows local governing bodies to conduct business via teleconference. In addition, the city may continue its regular calendar of meetings in the future as they likely draw fewer than 50 people.

The City of Concord will continue to monitor and evaluate the public health situation and update its practices based on the State and County guidelines.
