Description
Title: Request for Travel and Excused Absence.
Summary
The document is a council agenda item from the City of San Jose, dated February 10, 2026, submitted by Councilmember Rosemary Kamei. It requests an excused absence for Kamei from the Rules and Open Government Committee and Committee of the Whole meetings on February 4, 2026. The reason for the absence is due to a scheduling conflict with her role as the Council appointee to the Local Agency Formation Commission of Santa Clara County (Santa Clara LAFCO). This legislation matters as it highlights the importance of participation in local governance and the need for officials to balance multiple responsibilities. By excusing absences, the city acknowledges the demands on its council members while ensuring that governance continues effectively.
