at any time outside a meeting, public comment will generally not be heard at Workshops, although the public is always welcome to attend. Public comment on Workshops items will be available at the very next regular City Commission meeting following the Workshop. 7. Consent Agenda. The Consent Agenda shall be limited to those items which are reasonably expected to be approved by the Commission. Items placed on the Consent Agenda will not be discussed or debated at any length, other than brief questions or clarifications. If one or more members of the Commission wish to discuss or debate any one or more issue(s) on the consent agenda, he or she may make a request to remove such item(s) from the Consent Agenda to be considered independently immediately following action on other items that may be on the Consent Agenda. One singular motion and vote will be taken to approve or deny the Consent Agenda as presented and/or modified. The public may comment on the Consent Agenda prior to a vote on the Consent Agenda. 8. Public Hearings. In keeping with Section 166.041(3)(a) of the Florida Statutes regarding due process, the Second Readings of all proposed Ordinances shall be held during the Public Hearing segment of the agenda.
