• COMMUNITY FORUM - Individuals may address the City Council about any item <br /> not included on the regular agenda. Speakers are requested to come to the podium, <br /> state their name and address for the secretary's record, and limit their remarks to <br /> five minutes. Generally, the City Council will not take official action on items <br /> discussed at this time, but may typically refer the matter to staff for a future report <br /> or direct that the matter be scheduled on an upcoming agenda. <br /> CONSENT AGENDA -These items are considered routine and will a enacted by one <br /> motion. There will be no separate discussion of these items unless a <br /> Councilmember or citizen so requests, in which event the item will be removed <br /> from the Consent Agenda and placed elsewhere on the agenda. <br /> PUBLIC HEARINGS <br /> COMMISSIONS AND STAFF REPORTS <br /> GENERAL POLICY BUSINESS OF THE COUNCIL <br /> REPORTS FROM COUNCILMEMBERS AND CITY MANAGER <br /> INFORMATION AND ANNOUNCEMENTS <br /> ADJOURNMENT <br /> • Agenda <br /> To be considered, an item must be on the agenda and the agenda must be distributed to <br /> all the Councilmembers and any other persons having responsibility for an item at least <br /> three working days prior to the meeting. An agenda can be modified with addenda by a <br /> majority vote but this should be used only for minor items or items with extreme time <br /> constraints. <br /> An item can be moved from the consent agenda to the action agenda at the request of any <br /> Councilmember. <br /> Since there will be audience and cable TV viewers not familiar with each item, the chair <br /> will give a brief explanation of each item as it is addressed. <br /> The order of items on the agenda need not be followed absolutely. The Mayor may adjust <br /> the order in the interest of: <br /> • Filling in time before a scheduled item, i.e., a public hearing. <br /> • Grouping several items to best make use of consultant time. <br /> • Accommodating individuals who have attended the meeting specifically to provide <br /> input on an item. <br /> • -2- <br />
