Meeting Protocols:
PLEASE MUTE YOUR PHONES OR MICS. YOU MAY SUBMIT A CHAT ONLY TO BE RECOGNIZED AND NOT FOR PURPOSES OF ADDING COMMENTS OR POSING QUESTIONS AFTER YOU HAVE ALREADY SPOKEN OR FOR ANY OTHER EDITORIALIZATIONS. ANNOUNCE YOUR NAME CLEARLY FOR THE RECORD EACH TIME YOU SPEAK.
The following items are on file for consideration of the Council:
1) ROLL CALL
2) APPROVAL OF THE AGENDA
3) POLICY ITEMS & STAFF REPORTS
4) PETITIONS OR COMMUNICATIONS, ORAL OR WRITTEN
The Public Comment section offers an opportunity for any citizen to express opinions or ask questions regarding City services, policies, or other matters of community concern, and any agenda items that are not a part of a scheduled public hearing. Citizens will have five minutes for comments. This time limit was established to provide efficiency in the conduct of the meeting and to allow equal opportunity for everyone wishing to speak. An immediate response should not be expected, as issues are typically referred to City staff for follow-up or research and are then reported back to Council and the individual who initiated the comment or inquiry.
Written materials for presentation to Council must be submitted to the City Clerk as the speaker approaches the podium.
5) CONSENT AGENDA APPROVAL
The Consent Agenda can be adopted by a simple motion. The Consent Agenda will be read aloud prior to a vote on the motion. Any Consent Agenda item may be removed from the Consent Agenda at the request of a Council Member for individual consideration.
