speak after notice that the allotted time has expired; presenting comments or material irrelevant to the
item under discussion; failing to comply with lawful instructions of the presiding officer; or engaging in
other conduct, activity, or speech that delays, disturbs, or interferes with the effective or timely conduct

“Items from Citizens.” No person will be allowed to campaign on any political issue during the Park
Commission meeting. Comments must concern City services or policies. Please fill out a Request to be
Heard form, as provided by staff, and PLEASE LIMIT YOUR COMMENTS TO THREE

grounds for removal from the meeting location.
