Every council does this and its wasted time. The council terms of
reference/charter/GLEP 39 needs to be changed to provide for council
continuity.
e.g. Two year terms and elections every year for half the seats.
This avoids the two 'lost' months every year when the old council
doesn't want to make any decisions because its their last meeting and
the new council goes into 'headless chicken' mode at its first
meeting.
Continuity of some council members over elections would avoid that lost
time.

The council should elect a chairman from their members and appoint a
secretary. tanderson helping out in that role seemed (from the outside)
to work well.
The chairman will avoid the non productive time during the meetings
determining who will chair the next meeting.
