(2) When a member moves a suspension of the rules, the member shall be required to state the particular standing rule to which the motion is addressed. The presiding officer shall then put the question, "Is there any objection to the suspension of the rules in accordance with the motion?". An objection voiced to suspension of the rules by one member shall require a roll call on the motion for suspension. If no such objection is made, the clerk shall record a unanimous consent to the suspension of the rules and the presiding officer shall then proceed to state the principal question.

6 STANDING RULES Sec CITIZENS RIGHT TO ADDRESS THE COMMON COUNCIL (1) Any citizen shall have the right to speak on any item of business that is on the agenda for Common Council action requiring a vote at a Regular or Special Common Council meeting if he/she registers to speak on that item. This shall not apply to items in which the Common Council is acting in a quasi-judicial capacity, unless a public hearing is required by law for such item. (2) The Council shall also provide a Public Comment period at each Regular Council meeting for members of the public who wish to address the Common Council on a non-agenda topic. Any person that wishes to address the Common Council under this agenda item will be given a maximum of (3) minutes if he/she registers to speak under this agenda item. (3) Speakers shall be limited to a five-minute address on specific agenda items unless additional time is requested by the speaker and granted by the presiding officer with no objection from the Common Council. In special situations, the amount of time granted to speak may be reduced to accommodate the number of speakers and ensure the meeting is run efficiently and orderly. Any reduction of time shall require the consent of the Common Council. (4) A speaker who requires an interpreter, either because of his/her limited English proficiency or because of a disability, will be afforded additional time, but not less than eight (8) minutes. Additional time may be granted by the presiding officer without objection from the Common Council.

(6) The provisions of this Subchapter, other than section (2), shall apply to all Boards, Committees and Commissions of the City. (7) This Subchapter shall not preclude the chairperson presiding over any meeting from allowing public comment when otherwise not required to do so under this Subchapter, nor shall it preclude such chairperson from relieving the floor from any person whose remarks are off-topic, personally insulting, duplicative, or otherwise improper under Robert s Rules of Order. (8) Under no circumstance shall failure to comply with this Subchapter constitute grounds for the invalidation of any action taken by the Common Council or any Board, Committee, or Commission of the City of Stevens Point.
