AGENDA INFORMATION SHEET
DEPARTMENT: City Secretary’s Office
CM: Cassey Ogden, Interim
DATE: August 4, 2026
SUBJECT
Consider approval of a resolution of the City of Denton excusing the July 6, 2026 meeting absence of a
Parks, Recreation & Beautification Board Member; and providing an effective date.
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.
Parks, Recreation & Beautification Board Board Member Robert Tickner reported the absence on July
6, 2026 was due to the following: pre-planned travel. 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). Member Tickner filed the request within
the timeline required. The request is being formally presented to City Council.
