A. Every agenda for regular meetings of the City Council shall provide an opportunity for members of the public to address the council on any item of interest to the public that is within the city’s jurisdiction. With respect to any such item which is already on the agenda, members of the public shall be given the opportunity to address the City Council during its consideration of the item.
B. Where a member of the public raises an issue which has not yet come before the City Council, no action may be taken at that meeting concerning that item.
C. With respect to all oral communications, the mayor may establish reasonable time limits for public testimony on particular issues and for each individual speaker. Preference shall be given to those who previously have notified the City Clerk in advance of their desire to speak.
