HOW TO SPEAK TO A PARTICULAR ITEM OR DURING NON-AGENDA PUBLIC COMMENT:

Members of the public shall be given the opportunity to address the Council. The Council President may reduce the amount of time available to each speaker to appropriately manage the meeting and ensure the Council has time to consider all the agenda items. A member of the public may only provide one comment per agenda item.

Pursuant to the Levine Act (Gov’t Code Section 84308), any party to a permit, license, contract (other than competitively bid, labor or personal employment contracts) or other entitlement before the Council is required to disclose on the record any contribution, including aggregated contributions, of more than $500 made by the party or the party’s agents within the preceding 12 months to any Council Member. Participants and agents are requested to make this disclosure as well. The disclosure must include the name of the party or participant and any other person making the contribution, the name of the recipient, the amount of the contribution, and the date the contribution was made.

In-Person Comment on Agenda Items. Each speaker must file a written request (speaker slip) with the City Clerk at the meeting at which the speaker wishes to speak indicating which item they wish to speak on. Speaker slips may not be turned in prior to the day of the meeting or after completion of in-person testimony. In person testimony will conclude before virtual testimony begins.

Each person who wishes to address the Council shall approach the podium and state who they are representing if they represent an organization or another person.

For meeting management during the Proclamation, and Consent portions of the agenda, speakers will have one (1) minute per item and up to a maximum of three (3) minutes if there are three (3) or more items in that portion of the agenda.

For discussion and information items each speaker may speak up to three minutes, subject to the Council President’s determination of the time available for meeting management purposes, in addition to any time ceded by other members of the public who are present at the meeting and have submitted a speaker slip ceding them time. These speaker slips should be submitted together at one time to the City Clerk. The Council President may also limit organized group presentations to 10 minutes or less.

Virtual Public Comment on Agenda Items. Members of the public may participate virtually (by telephone or internet streaming) as indicated below. Speakers who wish to provide virtual public comment must enter the virtual queue by raising their virtual hands before the queue closes. The queue will close when the last virtual speaker finishes speaking or five minutes after in-person testimony ends, whichever happens first.

For meeting management during the Proclamation and Consent portions of the agenda, speakers will have one (1) minute per item and up to a maximum of three (3) minutes if there are three (3) or more items in that portion of the agenda.

For discussion and information items each speaker may speak up to three minutes, subject to the Council President’s determination of the time available for meeting management purposes. Speakers participating virtually may not allocate their time to other speakers and may not share video or visual aids (i.e. pdf, ppt, docs) during their comment period.

Quasi-Judicial Items. Immediately following the City's presentation on the item, the Applicant (and/or the Appellant in the case of an appeal) will be allowed up to 10 minutes for an organized presentation. Longer than 10 minutes will only be granted if the City's presentation exceeds 10 minutes. No written request (speaker slip) need be filed with the Clerk for either the applicant or appellant for those presentations, instead please contact the City Clerk at [email protected] or 619-533-4000, before noon the Friday before the item is to be heard to ensure proper meeting management. Upon the conclusion of those presentations, the Council President will then open the item for Public Comment which Tuesday, June 23, 2026

will be managed by the City Clerk and the Council President as described under In-Person Comment on Agenda Items and Virtual Public Comment on Agenda Items.

Non-Agenda Public Comment. Every agenda for a regular Council meeting shall provide a period on the agenda for members of the public to address the Council on items of interest to the public that are not on the agenda but are within the jurisdiction of the Council. NonAgenda Public Comment shall be subject to the exercise of the Council President’s discretion for a given agenda.

In order to ensure that the Council has time to consider all agenda items, Non-Agenda Public Comment on particular issues and for each individual speaker will be as follows:

Each speaker will be limited to two minutes. Speakers may not allocate their time to other speakers. If there are eight or more speakers on a single issue, the maximum time for the issue will be 16 minutes. The order of speaking generally will be determined on a firstcome, first-served basis, however, priority may be given to speakers who have not addressed the legislative body during Non-Agenda Public Comment at the last regularly scheduled Council meeting. A member of the public may only provide one non-agenda comment per agenda.

In-Person Non-Agenda Public Comment. Each speaker who wishes to address the Council must file a written request (speaker slip) with the City Clerk at the meeting at which the speaker wishes to speak. Speaker slips may not be turned in prior to the meeting date or after completion of in-person testimony. In-person testimony shall conclude before virtual testimony begins.

Each person who wishes to address the Council shall approach the podium and state who they are representing if representing an organization or another person.

Virtual Non-Agenda Public Comment. Speakers who wish to provide virtual Non-Agenda Public Comment must enter the virtual queue by raising their virtual hands before the queue closes. The queue will close when the last virtual speaker finishes speaking or five minutes after in-person testimony ends, whichever happens first. Those participating virtually may not share video or visual aids (i.e. pdf, ppt, docs) during their non-agenda comment period.

Please note: On Tuesdays, Non-Agenda Public Comment is taken during the 10am session, but some Non-Agenda Public Comment may be trailed, at the Council President’s discretion for meeting management purposes.
