FAQs
Can I participate in City Council Meetings?
The Mayor and City Council encourage citizen input. Time is reserved during each regular meeting for the public to address the City Council on any matter. In addition, the Mayor generally allows public input on any item listed on the agenda, prior to the Council making a decision on that item.
Anyone wanting to speak at a meeting should fill out a speaker card, found at the information table near the entrance.
What are the components of the City Council Agenda?
Consent Calendar: Matters considered routine and are acted upon in one motion. This section of the agenda does not require the discussion of individual items unless requested by a member of the Council or the public.
Meeting Open to the Public: Time when anyone in the audience can address the Council about matters that are not on the agenda. Speakers are limited to three minutes and should submit a speaker card to the City Clerk. Because it is not legal for the Council to discuss matters not on the agenda, any issue brought up under this section of the agenda will typically be referred to staff and may return to the Council as a regular item on a future agenda.
Public Hearings: Those who wish to speak on matters set for public hearing will be heard when the Mayor calls for comments from the audience in support of or opposition to an issue. After all interested parties have spoken, the hearing will be closed and the matter will be discussed and acted upon by the Council.
Matters Initiated by Council: Issues related to Council projects or priorities are handled in this section of the agenda. Typically, items appearing in this section are reviewed and discussed by the Council, followed by appropriate action.
