BACKGROUND Section 2-83(c) of the Denton City Code mandates board, commission, or committee members who cannot attend a meeting must contact the chairperson or an appropriate staff liaison to report the absence before the start of the meeting and provide the reason. Absences can be excused by the City Secretary if the notification is received in advance of the meeting and if the absence is for the following reasons: personal or family illness, death of a family member, jury duty, service in the armed forces, testifying before the legislature, attending a seminar involving municipal matters of importance to the member's duties, or an absence necessary for the member's business or employment. All board, commission, and committee members are provided information on the attendance requirements. Historic Landmark Commission Board Member Heather Gregory reported the absence on July 13, 2026 was due to the following: out of town for family vacation. If an absence is not excused as outlined in Section 2-83(c)(1)(a), a member may submit a request to have the absence excused by the City Council no later than ten business days after the date the absence occurred, and an item will be placed on the next available City Council agenda for consideration (See Section 2-83 (c)(1)b).
