Approval of Agenda: The time at which the agenda is approved. Councilmembers or the City Manager
may also suggest adding, withdrawing or moving the order of items on the agenda at this time. A simple
majority of Councilmembers present may vote to approve as written or as amended.
Oral Communications: This agenda item provides an opportunity for members of the public to address
the Council on any subject except quasi-judicial matters or matters scheduled for a public hearing before
the Council. The total time for oral communications is 30 minutes, and speakers must limit their
presentation to 3 minutes. A maximum of three persons are permitted to speak to each side of any one
topic.
Consent Calendar: Those matters of business that require action by the Council which are considered to
be of a routine and non-controversial nature are placed on the consent calendar. The individual items on
the consent calendar are typically approved, adopted, or enacted by one motion of the Council.
Public Hearings: Hearings held to receive public comment on important matters before the Council,
allowing the public an opportunity to provide input for Council consideration in the decision-making
process.
Study Session Items: Council reviews and determines the approach to be used on significant policy issues,
to receive progress reports on current issues, or to receive information from the City Manager, staff, or
other regional officials.
Land Use: This is the point on the agenda when land use matters, including the City Hearing Examiners’
decisions and recommendations on various land use applications, as well as appeals, are taken up for
Council discussion and action. Often the items taken up under this agenda item are quasi-judicial in
nature.
Written Reports: Council receives updates or progress reports on initiatives, plans, and programs in
written format.
Quasi-Judicial: Matters where the Council acts in their judicial capacity rather than their legislative
capacity.
Quorum: Minimum number of voting members who must be present for business to be conducted. A
quorum of the Bellevue City Council is four (4) members, a simple majority.
Ordinance: Ordinances are legislative acts or local laws. They are the most permanent and binding form
of Council action and may be changed or repealed only by a subsequent ordinance.
Resolution: Legislation that is adopted to express the policy of the Council or to direct certain types of
administrative action.
Motion: A motion is typically used to indicate majority approval of a procedural action or to authorize
disposition of routine items of business on the Council agenda. It may also be used to direct staff to take
certain administrative actions.
