any one topic.
Consent Calendar: Those matters of business that require action by the Council which are considered

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,

issues, to receive progress reports on current issues, or to receive information from the City
Manager, staff, or other regional officials.

of administrative action.
