11• <br />Process - Regglar and Special Council Meetings <br />For these proceedings the Council will use the "open discussion" procedure. That is, <br />discussion is open to any member before or after a motion is made. The privilege is also <br />extended to the City Manager, and any of the consultants who may have an interest in or <br />can contribute to the item at hand. <br />The Mayor can make liberal use of the "unanimous consent" procedure. That is, items <br />that in the judgment of the Mayor are likely to be unanimously approved can be <br />introduced for approval with the statement: "If there are no objections, stands approved <br />(or denied)." If any Council member has an objection, the item reverts to the standard <br />motion procedure. This "unanimous consent" procedure cannot be used for items <br />requiring formal votes, i.e., resolutions or for approval of the consent agenda. <br />The standard motion procedure is that each motion requires a second. This also applies to <br />amendments. Any motion, by any member shall be reduced to writing upon request of <br />any member. No motion shall be put to a vote until it has been stated by the recorder at <br />the request of any member of the Council. <br />To eliminate confusion, only one amendment will be considered at a time and that <br />amendment must be germane to the motion. An amendment cannot itself be amended. If <br />a change to an amendment is deemed appropriate, the amendment should be withdrawn <br />and reintroduced accordingly. <br />The general mode of voting will be by acclamation but with enough clarity that the <br />individual notes can be recorded in the minutes. If in doubt, the clerk can request <br />clarification. Each individual's vote will be entered in the minutes. <br />Any member may abstain from voting or disqualify himself/ herself. The reason for <br />disqualification or abstention must be stated by the member and entered into the minutes. <br />If a member disqualifies himself/ herself, he/she may leave the room while the issue is <br />being considered. <br />Roberts Rules of Order (revised) shall govern the Council procedures not covered by the <br />standing rules of the council. <br />The meeting will be video taped and the tape will be retained for 3 months following <br />approval of the minutes of the meeting. The standard retention can be extended if in the <br />judgment of the Mayor, City Clerk or any other Councilmember, such action is warranted. <br />If the Council action is the result of a resident request and that* request is denied in whole <br />or in part, reasons of the fact supporting the denial will be made part of the public record. <br />F:\Council Meetings\Council\standing rules of conduct.doc <br />34 <br />
