The Centennial City Council Meetings are audio streamed live on the City’s website. Please remember to mute the volume on your laptop computers and to turn off all cell phones as they may cause interference with the microphones and audio streaming. 1 Call to Order 2 Roll Call 3 Pledge of Allegiance 4 Public Comment The Public Comment section offers an opportunity for any citizen to express opinions or ask questions regarding City services, policies or other matters of community concern, and any agenda items that are not a part of a scheduled public hearing. Citizens will have three minutes for comments if they are speaking as an individual, or five minutes if speaking on behalf of a group or organization. These time limits were established to provide efficiency in the conduct of the meeting and to allow equal opportunity for everyone wishing to speak.

Written materials for presentation to Council may be submitted to the City Clerk as the speaker approaches the podium. The City’s computer presentation equipment is not available for general public use, although applicants are permitted to display relevant illustrations and material useful in informing the Council and public of a project. The public may, however, use the document camera for visual presentation of materials, if desired. 5 Scheduled Presentations (None) 6 Consideration of Communications, Proclamations and Appointments (None) CONSENT AGENDA The Consent Agenda can be adopted by a simple motion.
