CONDUCT OF CITY COUNCIL MEETINGS:
Meetings are conducted in accordance with the requirements of state law (the “Ralph M. Brown Act,” California Government Code Sections 54950, et seq.) and the City’s Decorum Policy. Members of the public may address the Council at designated times and are expected to conduct themselves with courtesy and respect. Speakers should direct comments to the Mayor and City Councilmembers, not the audience. Speakers are expected to yield the floor when the time limit is identified and comply with the City ’s Rules of Order. Speaking times are limited to no more than three (3) minutes per person, with the exception of certain hearings and appeals .
Consistent with SB 1100 the Mayor and City Councilmembers shall warn an individual that their behavior is disrupting the meeting and their failure to cease their behavior may result in removal. There will be order for the removal of the individual if they do not “promptly” cease their disruptive behavior.
PUBLIC COMMENT (INCLUDING CONSENT ITEMS AND DISCUSSION ITEMS):
The public may directly address the City Council on any subject within the Council ’s subject matter jurisdiction, including any matter that is not on the agenda. Speaking time is limited to no more than three (3) minutes per person, the Mayor shall then inform the speaker that they have fifteen (15) seconds to wrap up their comment. If the Mayor does not do so, any other member of the City Council and/or City staff present may also make this reminder. If the matter is not on the agenda, or if the matter is a consent item or discussion item, submit a speaker card or request to speak during the Public Comment portion of the meeting. Speaker cards are not required if the speaker otherwise makes a clear and timely request to address the Council, but do promote the efficient and orderly progress of the meeting. Information on Speaker Cards is subject to disclosure under the California Public Records Act. A public comment speaker may only speak once per item. A majority of the City Council (by motion) may elect to increase the time limit by an additional one (1) minute on an item/segment, or decrease the time limit by one (1) minute on an item/segment; provided, however, such a decision must be made by a motion of the City Council prior to the beginning of the segment – i.e., once public comment has begun on an item/segment, the City Council shall not adjust the time limit. All public comment speakers, regardless of whether or not a minute is added to or taken away from the public comment period, shall be afforded the same amount of time to speak. On closed session items, all public comment speakers shall have only three (3) minutes to speak on all items, regardless of the number of items on the closed session agenda.
CONSENT ITEMS:
These items are considered routine and may be approved by a single vote. Only the Mayor or a majority of the City Council may authorize public input after the consent calendar is introduced.
DISCUSSION ITEMS:
Only the Mayor or a majority of the City Council may authorize public input after a discussion item is introduced.

The California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) is the state law that requires the City to evaluate and document the potential environmental consequences of discretionary decision. (See, California Public Resources Code Sections 21000 21189.3; and the “CEQA Guidelines” at California Code of Regulations Title 14, Division 6, Chapter 3, Sections 15000 15387). For each item that requires a CEQA determination by City Council, there is a reference to that determination on this agenda, and more information regarding the CEQA analysis is included in the documents that accompany this Agenda. To the extent that City staff determines that particular items are not subject to CEQA, there will be no indication of a CEQA action on this Agenda.
CHALLENGES TO DECISIONS MADE BY THE CITY COUNCIL:
If a person wishes to file a legal challenge to any decision made by the City Council, you may be limited to raising only those issues which you or someone else raised during the meeting, or in a written communication received by the City Clerk prior to or during the meeting. In addition, a legal challenge may be limited or barred where the interested party has not sought and exhausted all available administrative remedies. The time limit to commence any legal challenge may be subject to strict timing requirements, and failure to comply with applicable timing requirements may result in a legal challenge being barred. Any lawsuit or legal challenge to any quasi -adjudicative decision made by the City Council is governed by Section 1094.6 of the Code of Civil Procedure, unless a shorter limitation period is specified by any other provision.
