Discuss City Council Rules of Procedure In referencing the RCA and current City Council Rules and Procedures (Attach- ment A), Mayor Roe noted one clarification proposed for memorializing action iminediately following applicable public hearings (Rule 3, Order of Business #12) versus the current separate action item, but typically receiving actiori by the City Council upon completion of most public hearings. Mayor Roe also noted one additional suggestion he was making to add the City Manager under Rule 3, Order of Business #5) to allow an opportunity for the City Manager to report back on items brought forward during previous public com- ment and needing follow-up, or to report on the Policy Priority Planning items as per recent discussions. Rather than having an Order of Business for the Pledge of Allegiance, Coun- cilmember McGehee suggested memorializing and affinning that the City Coun- cil would perform their duties to the best of their ability. Mayor Roe noted that change could be talcen under consideration at the discretion of the council if such a motion is inade. Specific to the suggestion to have action immediately after a public hearing, Councilinember Laliberte expressed concern with some situations allowing for the public hearing at one meeting and then action delayed to a future meeting.
