given date. The agenda will specify which agencies are meeting. All meetings are in the Anaheim
City Hall, Council Chambers, 200 S. Anaheim Blvd., Anaheim, CA 92805 or such other location as

PUBLIC COMMENTS: There are two Public Comment periods with speakers having one
opportunity to address the City Council, except for scheduled public hearing items. The time limit
established for public comments is three 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 remaining time shall be provided to non-agenda item speakers until the 90 minute time limitation
is exhausted. The second Public Comment period will be opened by the Mayor if any non-agenda
item 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. 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.
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.
CONSENT CALENDAR: Consent Calendar items will be acted on by one roll call vote unless a
member(s) requests an item(s) be discussed and/or removed from the Consent Calendar for
separate action.
SERVICIOS DE TRADUCCION: (TRANSLATION SERVICES: SEE LAST PAGE OF AGENDA
FOR DESCRIPTION IN ENGLISH) La ciudad provee servicios de interpretación al español en las
juntas del Consejo. La interpretación simultánea al español se ofrece por medio del uso de audífonos
y la interpretación consecutiva (español a inglés) también está disponible para cualquiera que desee
dirigirse al Ayuntamiento, declarando su petición en el podio. No tiene que usar los servicios de
interpretación de la Ciudad; las personas pueden proveer su propio intérprete, si lo desean. Debido
a que existen muchos dialectos y regionalismos, la Ciudad no puede garantizar que los intérpretes
puedan traducir a un dialecto o regionalismo en particular y rehúsa cualquier responsabilidad que
surja de tales servicios. Para servicios de interpretación en otros idiomas, comuníquese con la
oficina de la Ciudad (City Clerk), cuando menos 48 horas antes de la junta programada.
