CC Work Session 2. 1. Meeting Date: 10/22/2019 Information Title: Review Revised Draft of the Updated Resident Information Card for Council Chambers Purpose/Background: Purpose: The purpose of this case is to review the revised draft of the resident information card based on discussion from the October 8, 2019 work session. Previously, it was noted that the comment card language does not exactly mirror what the City's Charter states relating to citizen input. The Charter states the following: "During any of its public meetings, the council shall not prohibit, but may place reasonable restrictions upon citizens' comments and questions ........" Based on the discussion that occurred on October 8th, the proposed draft language is an attempt to: 1) List the Charter language at the top of the card 2) Remove redundancy 3) Explain the process of the consent agenda 4) Place a cap on the time allowed for citizen input to 3 minutes 5) Add language concerning citizen input on agenda items to state input will be taken upon approval of the Mayor or the majority of the Council. Comment Card Purpose: Comment cards in the back of the Council Chambers welcomes the audience to the Council meeting and describes what the Citizen Input portion of the meeting is as well as what the Consent Agenda is. There is space for written comment as well as guidelines for addressing the Council. Timeframe: Approximately 15 minutes. Funding Source: There will be a cost to printing new cards; however, the cost should be fairly minimal. Responsible Party(ies): Colleen Lasher, Administrative Services Director Outcome: To reach a consensus on the comment card language with regard to addressing the Council.
