2009 12 CONSENT AGENDA These items are considered routine and will be enacted by one motion. There will be no separate discussion of these items unless a Councilmember or citizen so requests, in which event the item will be removed from the Consent Agenda and placed elsewhere on the agenda. Donations to the city will be handled in the same accordance as long as it follows the City of St. Anthony Donation Policy. PUBLIC HEARING COMMISSIONS AND STAFF REPORTS REPORTS FROM COUNCILMEMBERS AND CITY MANAGER COMMUNITY FORUM Individuals may address the City Council about any item not included on the regular agenda. Speakers are requested to come to the podium, state their name and address for the secretary's records, and limit their remarks to five minutes. Generally, the City Council will not take official action on items discussed at this time, but may typically refer the matter to staff for a future report or direct that the matter be scheduled on a upcoming agendas. INFORMATION AND ANNOUNCEMENTS ADJOURNMENT AGENDA To be considered, an item must on the agenda and the agenda must be distributed to all the Councilmembers and any other persons having responsibility for an item at least three working days prior to the meeting. An agenda can be modified with addenda by a majority vote but this should be used only for minor items or items with extreme time constraints. An item can be moved from the consent agenda to the action agenda at the request of any Councilmember. Since there will be audience and cable TV viewers not familiar with each item, the Mayor will give a brief explanation of each item as it is addressed. The order of items on the agenda need not be followed absolutely. The Mayor may adjust the order in the interest of: Filling in time before a scheduled item, i.e. a public hearing. Grouping several items to best make use of consultant time. Z:\Council Meetings\2009\08252009\standing rules of conduct.doe
