Any member of the Council wishing to speak on any item on the agenda shall be recognized by the Mayor to do so. This recognition can be informal. No Council member shall interrupt another Council member. Council members shall conduct themselves at all times with civility and respect. They shall refrain from making any disparaging remarks concerning any other member of the government body, employees or the public. If the Chair feels that there has been sufficient discussion of an item and all Council members have had an opportunity to speak, the Chair can call for a motion on the item. If no motion is received the item will be considered continued to allow further thought by the Council members on the item. Any meeting designated as a work meeting shall be more informal and Council members may freely participate as long as proper decorum is maintained.
