<br />Mayor or presiding officer shall inform the audience of this requirement to sign up prior to the <br />commencement of a public hearing. Speakers will be limited to three minutes. Eugene Code <br />2.015(7) notwithstanding, councilors may ask clarifying or follow up questions of individuals <br />providing testimony after that individual has completed his/her testimony. Questions posed by <br />City Councilors should be to provide clarification or additional information on testimony <br />provided. Questions should not be used as an attempt to lengthen or expand the testimony of the <br />individual. Councilors shall be expected to use restraint and be considerate of the meeting time of <br />the Council when exercising this option. The Mayor or presiding officer may intervene if a <br />councilor is violating the spirit of this guideline. At the end of the Public Hearing, each member of <br />the Council has the opportunity to comment on or discuss testimony given during the Public <br />Hearing. <br /> <br />The Mayor and Council will be limited to commenting only on the main motion prior to <br />discussing any proposed amendments. If a an amendment to the motion is made during the initial <br />round on the main motion, subsequent remarks on the amendments will be postponed until all <br />wishing to speak on the main motion have done so. <br /> <br />1.07 Executive Session <br /> <br />All meetings of the Eugene City Council shall be held in open session, except those meetings that <br />may be closed for those purposes specified in the Oregon Attorney General’s Public Records and <br />Meetings Manual (ORS 192.610 to 192.690). These include the employment and dismissal of <br />public employees, the performance evaluation of the City Manager, labor negotiations, real <br />property transactions negotiations, and consulting with legal counsel on pending or threatened <br />litigation. <br /> <br />Notice of executive sessions shall be given as required by state law and that notice must state the <br />specific provisions of law authorizing the session. <br /> <br />The Mayor and City Councilors are expected to maintain the confidentiality of the information <br />discussed in legally noticed and conducted executive sessions as defined in Chapter 192 of the <br />Oregon Revised Statutes. <br /> <br />1.08 Minutes <br /> <br />Written minutes shall be taken for all Council meetings in accordance with the Oregon Attorney <br />General’s Public Records and Meetings Manual. The minutes must give a true reflection of the <br />matters discussed but need not be a full transcript, verbatim or recording. As a matter of courtesy <br />and efficiency, councilors should notify the Mayor and other councilors that he/she intends to <br />propose an amendment to the minutes and should propose replacement text in advance of the <br />meeting at which those minutes are scheduled to be approved. If the proposed amendment is a <br />simple factual, grammatical, or spelling correction, the amendment may be proposed without <br />consulting the minutes recorder. If, however, the proposed amendment is substantive in nature or <br />seeks to clarify the speaker's intent, or to expand his/her remarks for the record, the councilor <br />should notify the minutes recorder and request verification of the proposed amendment. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Eugene City Council Operating Agreements – May 22, 2006 <br />Page 3 of 12 <br /> <br />
