STREAMLINING COUNCIL MEETINGS:

Recommendation:

It is recommended that the Council consider adopting a package of changes to streamline the Council meetings, including the following:

1.  Frequency of meetings:

Generally meet on the first three Tuesdays of each month, with no meetings on holidays or City election days.   However, the Council would look at whether additional meetings would be needed, particularly in May for budget purposes, would not meet on the first Tuesday of July, August or September, and would meet only on the first two Tuesdays of November and December.

2.  Timing of Meetings:

Meetings would begin at 5:00 p.m., with Study Sessions, Budget Study Sessions and Closed Sessions to be held in the afternoon.

3.  Oral Communications:

Rather than the current four periods of Communications, the Communications would be revised as follows:  Two minutes before Closed Session; up to four minutes before Agenda items (on agenda items and any item within the subject matter jurisdiction of the Council.  Individual speaking time may be reduced if the number of speakers would make it difficult to conclude the business of the City within a reasonable time.); four minutes for speakers at Public Hearings; and no additional period of Communications at the conclusion of the meeting.

The meeting frequency was left as is.  The Council to approve of Dark Meetings at the Annual Goal Setting Workshop.

Council meetings to begin at 6 p.m.

Combine Initial and Agenda Orals to a one 5-minute period and an additional 3-minute Final Orals period at the conclusion of the meeting.

Public Hearing orals maintained at

 5 minutes.

Closed Session orals maintained at 3 minutes.

4.         Length of Meetings:

Meetings may not last past 11:00 p.m. without a unanimous vote of the Members present.

5.         Documents Presented to the Council:

Speakers seeking to present documents to the Council must provide twenty-five copies or the documents will not be accepted.  This caution would be displayed on the agenda.

Meetings may not continue past 11 p.m. without a majority vote.

Speakers seeking to present documents to the Council must provide at least 10 copies or the documents will not be accepted.
