CONDUCT OF BUSINESS

divergent points of view. Please respect the opinions of others and
refrain from outward expressions of emotions such as cheering or
clapping. Such behavior delays the meeting and may intimidate other

result in removal from the meeting.
The proceedings of the meeting are recorded on audiotape and
videotape; therefore, members of the audience who address the City
Council must come to the lectern/microphone, and are requested to

CONDUCT OF BUSINESS
The Mayor is the presiding officer of the City Council. Any member of the
public may speak on any item on the agenda for up to three minutes. All
statements and questions must be addressed to the Mayor.
City Council hearings serve as a venue for the discussion of sometimes
divergent points of view. Please respect the opinions of others and
refrain from outward expressions of emotions such as cheering or
clapping. Such behavior delays the meeting and may intimidate other
persons wishing to express alternate views. Loud, unruly outbursts will
result in removal from the meeting.
The proceedings of the meeting are recorded on audiotape and
videotape; therefore, members of the audience who address the City
Council must come to the lectern/microphone, and are requested to
complete a Speaker Card and identify themselves.
