GETTING TO KNOW YOUR AGENDA
Agenda Sections:
CONSENT CALENDAR items are routine items that are not expected to prompt discussion. All items are
considered for approval at the same time with one vote. Councilmembers and staff may request items be
removed and members of the public may submit a speaker slip if they wish to comment on an item. Items
removed from the Consent Calendar are discussed after the vote on the remaining Consent Calendar items.
PUBLIC COMMENT provides the public with an opportunity to address the Council on any matter not listed on
the agenda that is within the jurisdiction of the Council. In compliance with the Brown Act, the Council cannot
take action on matters not listed on the agenda.
PUBLIC HEARINGS are held on matters specifically required by law. The Mayor opens the public hearing
and asks for presentations from staff and from the proponent or applicant involved (if applicable) in the matter
under discussion. Following questions from the Councilmembers, the Mayor opens the public hearing and
asks for public comments. The hearing is closed, and the City Council may discuss and take action.
ACTION ITEMS are items that are expected to cause discussion and/or action by the Council but do not
legally require a Public Hearing. Staff may make a presentation and Councilmembers may ask questions of
staff and the involved parties before the Mayor invites the public to provide input.
CLOSED SESSION may only be attended by members of the Council, support staff, and/or legal counsel. The
most common purpose of a Closed Session is to avoid revealing confidential information that may prejudice
the legal or negotiating position of the City or compromise the privacy interests of employees. Closed
sessions may be held only as specifically authorized by law.
Council Actions:
RESOLUTIONS are formal expressions of opinion or intention of the Council and are usually effective
immediately.
ORDINANCES are laws adopted by the Council. Ordinances usually amend, repeal or supplement the
Municipal Code; provide zoning specifications; or appropriate money for specific purposes. Most ordinances
require two hearings: an introductory hearing, generally followed by a second hearing at the next regular
meeting. Most ordinances go into effect 30 days after the final approval.
PROCLAMATIONS are issued by the City to honor significant achievements by community members,
highlight an event, promote awareness of community issues, and recognize City employees.
