STEVEN KUENY City Manager CHERYL J. KANE City Attorney PATRICK RICHARDS, A.I.C.P. Director of Community Development R. DENNIS DELZEIT City Engineer JOHN V. GILLESPIE Chief of Police THOMAS P. GENOVESE City Treasurer SUBJECT: POSSIBLE AMENDMENT OF THE RULES OF PROCEDURE REGARDING LENGTH OF MEETINGS The following are potential ideas to consider when discussing ways to reduce the length of meetings. 1. Start regular meetings at 6:30 P.M. 2. Modify Rules of Procedure concerning public comments to A. Accept no speaker cards after announcement by Mayor that no more cards will be accepted; this would be done prior to start of that agenda item. B. Place a time limit for public comment at each meeting; the Council previously chose not to do this but allowed Council majority to place a limit at any single meeting. 3. Reorder the agenda earlier in the meeting, perhaps at 10:30 not 11:30, to determine what items the Council wants to consider for the balance of the evening. 4. Agree that any closed session to be held at the conclusion of the meeting start no later than a time certain such as 11:30 P.M. or 12:00 midnight. 5. More attention to keeping the breaks within the time specified; determine not to break at about 9:00 P.M. during initial change of tape and remain on dais until taping resumes and then break from 9:45 to 10:00. 799 Moorpark Avenue Moorpark, California 93021 (805) 529-6864 The Honorable City Council April 6, 1988 Page 2 6. 7. 8. 9, Direct staff to put no more than an estimated five or six iiuurv, items on each agenda.
