SUBJECT: REVIEW OF COUNCIL PROCEDURE REGARDING PUBLIC
SPEAKERS
BACKGROUND:
At its meeting of July 15, 1992, the City Council determined to
amend the Rules of Procedure for Council meetings to allow public
comment during the discussion of an action /discussion item
appearing on the agenda. The Council decided upon a three month
trial period for the amended Rules of Procedure.
The criteria used in amending the Rules of Procedure relative to
the Council's decision were as follows:
1. All speakers, including applicants or others with a special
interest in the item, be limited to three minutes.
2. The Council to follow the practice of holding
comments/ questions until the conclusion of all public comment
on the item under discussion.
3. All speakers to address the chair and maintain proper decorum.
4. Speaker cards to be submitted prior to the beginning of the
action /discussion portion of the agenda.
5. Speakers under public comment, Number 6 on the agenda, to be
allowed to address items not listed on the agenda and items
listed on the Consent Calendar only.
The three month trial period is complete.. Should the Council
decide to continue with the Rules of Procedure as now constituted
in Resolution 92 -867, no change is required. If the Council
determines to return to the previous practice for public speakers,
staff should be directed to prepare an amended Rules of Procedure
resolution.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Direct staff as deemed appropriate.
