Members of the public will not be allowed in the chamber and council's general manager, David Sherley, said most councillors will also attend the meeting remotely.
"Minimal staff will be in attendance to ensure the technical needs of the meeting are met," he added.
The need to conduct the meeting predominately online is due to Saturday's lockdown announcement.
The meeting will be streamed via council's YouTube channel from 6pm Wednesday night.
Mr Sherley said the platform has been used successfully since February 2020.
He is not concerned about the number of people participating remotely, saying there will be assistance available if there are technical issues.
