agencies are meeting. All meetings are in the Anaheim City Hall, Council
Chamber, 200 S. Anaheim Blvd., Anaheim, CA 92805 or such other location as
noted.� Pursuant
to Government Code Section 54954.2(a)(2), no action or discussion by the City
Council shall be undertaken on any item not appearing on the posted agenda,
except to briefly provide information, ask for clarification, provide direction
to staff, or schedule a matter for a future meeting.
� REPORTS:� All
agenda items and reports are available for review in the City Clerk�s Office and www.anaheim.net/councilagendas.�
Any writings or documents provided to a majority of the City Council

Public comments are limited to three (3) minutes per speaker, unless a
different time limit is announced. The City uses speaker cards that must be
submitted to the City Clerk in order to address the City Council.� Prior
to the business portion of the agenda, the City Council and all other related
agencies meeting on such date will convene in joint session for the first
Public Comment period where speakers will be permitted to speak on specific
agenda item(s).� This first Public
Comment period is limited to 90 minutes or until all agenda item speakers have
been heard, whichever is later.� Any

speakers were not called during the first Public Comment period. �For
public hearings, the Mayor or Chairperson will separately call for
testimony at the time of each public hearing.�
Testimony during public hearings is subject to the following
time limits: Project applicant or issue initiator: twenty minutes for initial
presentation and ten minutes for rebuttal; Residents within the noticed area of
the subject property: ten minutes; All other members of the public: three
minutes. Public hearings regarding legislative matters: five minutes. The Mayor
or Chairperson may limit the length of comments during public hearings due to
the number of persons wishing to speak or if comments become repetitious or
irrelevant. Speakers shall
refrain from profane language and other disruptive remarks or behavior which
disrupts or disturbs the meeting, or risk being removed (AMC 1.12.017).
Additionally, members of the public may correspond with the City Council and
all other related agencies, on any agenda items or matters within the
jurisdiction of such governing bodies, by submitting comments electronically
for City Council consideration by sending them to publiccomment@anaheim.net. To ensure distribution to
the City Council prior to consideration of the agenda, please submit comments
at least 2 hours prior to the scheduled start time of the meeting. Those
comments, as well as any comments received after that time, will be distributed
to the City Council, posted on the City�s website, and will be made part of the
official public record of the meeting. Current and archived public
comments are available at www.anaheim.net/publiccomment. Contact the City Clerk�s
Office at 714-765-5166 or cityclerk@anaheim.net with any questions.
� ADDITIONS/DELETIONS:
Items of business may be added to the agenda upon a motion adopted by a minimum
2/3 vote finding that there is a need to take immediate action and that the
need for action came to the attention of the City or Agency subsequent to the
agenda being posted. Items may be deleted from the agenda upon request of staff
or upon action of the Council or Agency.��
