Items listed in the "Consent Agenda" will be approved by Council in their entirety by a single motion, indicated by the (√) symbol, unless otherwise indicated by Council. Other agenda items are considered individually.
Consideration of the item identified on this agenda with an asterisk (**) is a quasi-judicial function of the Council involving land use, and the following procedures apply:

- Consideration of applications to intervene as a party, if any. “Request to Intervene/Expert Witness” forms and instructions may be obtained from the recording secretary prior to the scheduled time for consideration of the item.
- Qualification of sworn witnesses who wish to testify as an expert, based on statement of credentials made orally or set forth in application file.

- Testimony by members of the public who wish to address application. Any individual, not requesting/designated as an intervening party or expert witness may, upon being recognized by the Mayor, present information to the Council, and may be questioned by the Council but is not required to be subject to cross-examination, and need not be sworn in.
- Close of public hearing.
- Council deliberation/vote.
Items identified with a double asterisk (**) are quasi-judicial functions of the City Council other than land use; the Council Members disclose any ex parté communications.
