<br />City Administrator Hagen shared that the removal of these term limits will be on the Consent <br />Agenda at the regular Council meeting and can be pulled if anyone would like to vote against it. <br /> <br />Councilmember Specht stated he will be requesting to pull this item from Consent to stay <br />consistent with his vote against removing these term limits. <br /> <br />The consensus of the Council was to remove the Chair term limits for Boards and Commissions. <br /> <br />2.03: Regular Meeting Agenda Order <br /> <br />City Administrator Hagen reviewed the Staff report in regard to the Regular Council Meeting <br />agenda order. <br /> <br />Councilmember Riley shared that he approves of both of the suggestions to move the approval of <br />the minutes back to the Consent Agenda and to move the approval of the agenda to right after the <br />call to order. He said it is rare that the Council needs to discuss the minutes, and if changes are <br />needed then they can be pulled from the Consent Agenda. He added that approving the agenda <br />makes sense to do right after the call to order as well. <br /> <br />Councilmember Specht agreed. He asked if three minutes is still a reasonable amount of time for <br />citizens' input. <br /> <br />Councilmember Riley noted that they are generous when it comes to the enforcement of the three- <br />minute rule. <br /> <br />Mayor Heineman explained that the three minutes is a mechanism for control, and if someone is <br />not adhering to the standards that they should be, they can leverage this time limit. He said he <br />would never want to cut someone off for sharing valid concerns and important information. He <br />added that he wants to make sure this would not show favoritism by letting someone speak longer <br />than others. <br /> <br />Councilmember Olson agreed. He said he does not feel strongly about where the minutes are <br />approved in the agenda; however, he is leaning towards just having it on the Consent Agenda. <br /> <br />The consensus of the Council was to move the approval of the minutes back to the Consent Agenda <br />and to move the approval of the agenda to after the call to order. <br /> <br />3.
