After the regularly scheduled April 2 City Council meeting was canceled due to technical difficulties, Leander City Council has scheduled a meeting for 7 p.m. April 8.

According to the agenda, City Council plans to discuss the creation of a COVID-19 Emergency Grant Program, which would benefit Leander businesses affected financially by coronavirus. If approved, the program would aid with personnel costs, rent, utilities and other costs.

Council plans to meet by teleconference, which will incorporate audio but not video. To listen to the meeting by phone, call 408-418-9388 and use the code 621021893. Meeting audio will be streamed live online at
