SUBJECTREVISING ORDER OF BUSINESS ON COUNCIL AGENDA
UNCIL COMMUNICAT
DATE
MAY 13, 1982
At the April 21, 1982 regular City Council meeting,
Councilman Randy Snider suggested a possible
change in the City Council agenda order of busi-
ness so that the Consent Calendar might be heard
and considered earlier in the meeting.
In this regard, I have drafted an ordinance revising
the order of business for the Council's consideration,
a copy of which is attached hereto along with a copy
of the present City Code Section 2-9 for your
comparison.
The order of business is further changed in this
draft ordinance to reflect an item (j), "Comments by
the Public on Non -Agenda Items".
No.
One additional minor change to be noted on the draft
is that Item (i) has been changed to read "Comments by City
Council Members", rather than "Councilmen".
ORDINANCE NO.
