To review these materials during the meeting, please see the City Clerk Visual Materials Visual materials, such as pictures, charts, maps or slides, are allowed for comments on agenda items, not general public comment. Please contact the City Manager's Office at 760-434-2820 or manager@carlsbadca.gov to make arrangements in advance. All materials must be received by the City Manager's Office no later than noon the day before the meeting. The time spent presenting visual materials is included in the maximum time limit provided to speakers. All materials exhibited to the City Council during the meeting are part of the public record. Please note that video presentations are not allowed. Decorum All participants are expected to conduct themselves with mutual respect. Loud, boisterous and unruly behavior can interfere with the ability of the City Council to conduct the people's business. That's why it is illegal to disrupt a City Council meeting. Following a warning from the presiding officer, those engaging in disruptive behavior are subject to law enforcement action. City Council Agenda The City Council follows a regular order of business that is specified in the Carlsbad Municipal Code. The City Council may only make decisions about topics listed on the agenda. June 16, 2020 Page 5 Presentations The City Council often recognizes individuals and groups for achievements and contributions to the community. Well- wishers often fill the chamber during presentations to show their support and perhaps get a photo. If you don't see an open seat when you arrive, there will likely be one once the presentations are over. Consent Items Consent items are considered routine and may be enacted together by one motion and vote. Any City Council member may remove or "pull" an item from the "consent calendar" for a separate vote. Members ofthe public may pull an item from the consent calendar by requesting to speak about that item. A speaker request form must be submitted to the clerk prior to the start of the consent portion of the agenda. Public Comment Members of the public may speak on any city related item that does not appear on the agenda. State law prohibits the City Council from taking action on items not listed on the agenda. Comments requiring follow up will be referred to staff and, if appropriate, considered at a future City Council meeting. Members of the public are also welcome to provide comments on agenda items during the portions of the meeting when those items are being discussed. In both cases, a request to speak form must be submitted to the clerk in advance of that portion of the meeting beginning. Public Hearing Certain actions by the City Council require a "public hearing," which is a time within the regular meeting that has been set aside and noticed according to different rules. Departmental Reports This part of the agenda is for items that are not considered routine and do not require a public hearing. These items are usually presented to the City Council by city staff and can be informational in nature or require action. The staff report about each item indicates the purpose of the item and whether or not action is requested. Other Reports At the end of each meeting, City Council members and the city manager, city attorney and city clerk are given an opportunity to share information. This usually includes reports about recent meetings, regional issues, and recent or upcoming meetings and events. City Council Actions Resolution A resolution is an official statement of City Council policy that directs administrative or legal action or embodies a public City Council statement. A resolution may be introduced and adopted at the same meeting. Once adopted, it remains City Council policy until changed by subsequent City Council resolution. Ordinance Ordinances are city laws contained in the Carlsbad Municipal Code. Enacting a new city law or changing an existing one is a two-step process. First, the ordinance is "introduced" by city staff to the City Council. If the City Council votes in favor of the introduction, the ordinance will be placed on a subsequent City Council meeting agenda for "adoption." If the City Council votes to adopt the ordinance, it will usually go into effect 30 days later. Motion A motion is used to propose City Council direction related to an item on the agenda. Any City Council member may make a motion. A motion must receive a "second" from another City Council member to be eligible for a City Council vote. June 16, 2020 Page6
