Government Code Sections 54950, et seq.) and the City’s Rules of Order (Council Policy Resolution 19).
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

certain hearings and appeals, or at the discretion of the Mayor or City Council.

including any matter that is not on the agenda. Speaking time is limited to no more than three (3) minutes per
person, unless modified at the discretion of the Mayor or City Council.
If the matter is not on the agenda, or if the matter is on the Consent Calendar, or is an Administrative Report,
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.
CONSENT CALENDAR:
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.

minutes to present rebuttal at the end of the public hearing. All other speakers will be limited to 3 minutes.
CLOSED SESSION
The City Council is authorized to meet in closed session, without attendance by the public, on limited
confidential topics such as pending litigation, real property negotiations, or personnel or labor matters.
CALIFORNIA ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ACT:
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. Under Section 1094.6, any
lawsuit or legal challenge to any quasi-adjudicative decision made by City Council must be filed no later than the
90th day following the date on which such decision becomes final.
