Budget Meeting Schedule - July 23

Post by Steve Adler »

Colleagues,

We have about 400 speakers signed up for Budget Input tomorrow. We have been planning on each speaker getting 2 minutes. This totals 800 minutes or just over 13 hours of speaker time (absent council action otherwise). So that speakers do not have to wait on line all day, they will be assigned to 2 hour batches by the order they signed up. Their call in instructions from the Clerk will include that information. We will need a brief recess between batches to connect the next one. If a batch finishes early, we will recess until the next batch is scheduled to begin. A speaker will be given an opportunity to speak in their assigned batch, only.

Here is our planned schedule for tomorrow. It will be important that we start on time and come back from each break on time.

• Call meeting to order
• Batch 1: 10 am – 12 pm
• Lunch Break: 12 pm – 1 pm
• Batch 2: 1 pm – 3 pm
• Batch 3: 3 pm – 5 pm
• Dinner Break: 5 pm – 6 pm
• Batch 4: 6 pm – 8 pm
• Batch 5: 8 pm – 10 pm
• Batch 6: 10 pm – midnight
