Individuals may address the city council about any item not included on the regular agenda. Specific procedures that are used for citizens comments are available on notecards located in the rack near the entrance to the council chambers. Speakers are requested to come to the podium, state their name and address for the clerk's record, and limit their remarks to three 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 an upcoming 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.
