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 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

approaches the podium.
