ADJOURNMENT
Those members of the City Council wishing to speak shall first be recognized by the Chair to speak, and each person who speaks
shall address the chair. Other persons in attendance at the meeting shall not speak unless recognized by the Chair (Roberts’ Rules).
Prior to the discussion by the City Council on each item to be considered, the Chair shall first ask for a motion from the Council on
the item to be discussed. Once a motion is made and seconded, the City Council may discuss the matter at hand. Once Council has
finished its discussion on the matter, the Chair shall open discussion on the matter to the public. The Chair, at his sole discretion
may establish a time limit for individual public comments on any business item if the Chair determines that time limits are
necessary to provide for the orderly conduct of the meeting (PA267 of 1976, as amended). When the Chair determines that there are
no other public comments on the business item, discussion on the item will be closed to the public and only the City Council shall
then engage in any final discussion on the matter and act on the business item without interruption from the public.
