8 ORAL COMMUNICATIONS FOR MATTERS NOT ON THE AGENDA: Thirty (30) minutes are set aside at each meeting for citizens who wish to address an issue not on the agenda. The purpose of oral communications is to bring to the attention of the Planning Commission a matter or matters which do not appear on the agenda. Remarks shall be addressed to Planning Commission as a body and not to any member of the Planning Commission, staff or the public. State law prohibits Commission action on non-agenda items because the public would be unaware prior to the meeting of any potential action. If needed, Oral Communication items will be referred to the Planning and Building Department either for resolution by administrative action or placement on a future agenda by the Mayor/Chair or at the request of at least two Planning Commissioners. Each speaker is allowed three (3) minutes to address the Planning Commission. Time donations are not permitted during Oral Communications. Please submit a WHITE speaker slip to the secretary. Speaker Slips will be accepted no earlier than 30 minutes before the start of the meeting. CONSENT CALENDAR ITEMS: Those matters which are considered routine by the Secretary shall be initially placed on the Consent Calendar. Before adopting the Consent Calendar, the Chair will ask members of the public and members of the Planning Commission whether anyone wishes to add an agenda item to the Consent Calendar or to remove a matter from the Consent Calendar. Any member of the public may remove an item from the Consent Calendar by submitting a PINK speaker slip to the Commission Secretary. The Planning Commission will then proceed with consideration of the remaining Consent Calendar. The Consent Calendar will be enacted upon with one motion, and the ordinances being read by title will be waived. There will be no separate discussion of these matters. Items pulled from the Consent Calendar will be considered immediately following adoption of the remaining Consent Calendar, and staff reports will only be given if requested by the person who pulled the item. Each speaker is allowed three (3) minutes to address the Planning Commission. A maximum of two time donations per speaker is allowed (no more than 9 minutes total). Please submit a PINK speaker slip to the Commission Secretary. Speaker Slips will be accepted no earlier than 30 minutes before the start of the meeting. REGULAR AGENDA ITEMS: To speak on items listed on the agenda (other than Oral Communications), please submit a PINK speaker slip to the Commission Secretary. In addition, a person in attendance who wishes to register support or opposition to a recommended action without speaking may do so by completing a PINK speaker slip and checking the appropriate box and the box but do not wish to speak. Each speaker is allowed three (3) minutes to address the Planning Commission. A maximum of two time donations per speaker is allowed (no more than 9 minutes total); the person donating time must be present. Speaker Slips will be accepted no earlier than 30 minutes before the start of the meeting. AUGUST 18, 2016 ITEM 6B 8 of 10
