Every even - numbered year either two or three Council members are elected at large to serve four -year terms. The Council elects from its membership a Mayor to serve as its presiding officer for a one -year term. The City Manager is employed by the Council to carry out its policies and to serve as executive officer of the City. CITY COUNCIL MEETINGS Regular meetings of the City Council are held on the first and third Tuesdays of the month at 7:00 p.m., in the City Hall Council Chambers. From time to time, special meetings are scheduled for specific purposes. The Council follows a regular order of business as provided in the agenda for each meeting. The agenda is prepared and made available to the public 72 hours in advance of the meeting. CITIZEN PARTICIPATION Citizen participation is invited at all Council meetings. At each regular meeting, time is reserved for those in the audience who may wish to address the Council on any matter. However, experience has shown that routine matters can often be handled faster if taken up directly with the department providing the service during normal business hours. PUBLIC HEARING PROCEDURES Any person desiring to address the Council should step up to the microphone, state their name and address for the record and limit their remarks to the question under discussion. Repetition is not helpful. Following the presentation of the staff report, the applicant is afforded the opportunity to address the Council. Others in favor of the proposal may then address the Council followed by those in opposition to the proposal. The hearing is then closed, discussion by the Council is held, and the Council then acts on the proposal and either approves, approves with conditions or modifications, or denies the application. CONSENT ITEMS All items listed under "Consent" are considered to be routine by the City Council and will be enacted by one motion. There will be no separate discussion on these items unless a Council member so requests.
