Council Work Session and Council Meeting Schedule

[Colleen Pate]

Council:

Here is my plan for the Council Work Session tomorrow. We will begin at 9am with items 47 and 48. Following speakers and discussion on items 47 and 48, we will take up item 42.

We will then take up the briefing items B1 and B2. I am looking forward to a productive Work Session.

I also want to take the opportunity to share my plan for the Council Meeting on Thursday, October 24th.

We will begin promptly at 10am. We will start with non-consent items 47 and 48. We will hear speakers on these items followed by a discussion and vote. Speakers will have 3 minutes per item. Speakers will be able to donate time. Speakers wishing to donate time must coordinate with the City Clerk prior to being called. All parties (speakers and donors) must be present in person to be eligible for donation of time.

Following items 47 and 48, we will take up the consent agenda and hear public testimony on consent items. Speakers will be called to speak on individual consent items in numerical order. We will then vote on the consent agenda with brief remarks from Council. Please let Colleen know if you would like to be recognized to speak on any items on the consent agenda.

We will then recess the Council meeting and conduct the AHFC meeting.

Following the AHFC meeting, we will take up any pulled items.

We will then take up all remaining non-consent items including eminent domain items and public hearings. We will hear from speakers on non-consent items, when the item is taken up.

For non-consent items and items pulled from consent, the item will be laid out by staff or the Council Member. Council will have the opportunity for a brief discussion to ask clarifying questions. We will then hear testimony on the item and follow with further Council discussion and vote.
Public Communication will begin at 12pm. We will not have live music this week. We will not have a formal lunch break. Please be sure that a quorum is present and excuse yourself to take a 10–15-minute lunch break.

We will hear from our zoning consent speakers and vote on the zoning consent agenda. Speakers will have 3 minutes.

Should we have zoning items for discussion, we will hear a staff presentation followed by a presentation from the applicant (5 minutes) and from the opposition (5 minutes). We will then hear public testimony. The opposition and the applicant will each have 3 minutes for closing remarks. The Council will then discuss and vote.

Thank you,

Kirk
