AGENDA
- Election of Deputy Mayor and Vice Chair
- Appointment of Committee Chairs
This portion of the agenda is set aside for the public to address the Council on agenda items or any topic the Council might have purview or control over. If the comments are of a nature that the Council does not have influence or control over, then the Mayor may request the speaker to suspend their comments. The Council may direct staff to follow up on items brought up by the public. Comments are limited to a three (3) minute time limit.
The following items are considered to be routine and non-controversial by the Council and will be approved by one motion. There will be no separate discussion of these items unless a Councilmember so requests, in which case the item will be removed from the Consent Calendar in its normal sequence on the agenda.
