Description
How to read a Rules and Open Government Agenda, and when to raise your hand.
A
Hi,
this
is
tony
tabor
city
clerk
of
the
city
of
san
jose
we're
going
to
go
over
the
joint
meeting
for
the
rules
and
open
government
committee
and
the
committee
of
the
whole.
The
purpose
of
the
rules
and
open
government
committee
is
to
review
items
that
are
going
to
go
to
council
or
it
could
potentially
go
to
council.
A
So,
looking
at
this
first,
this
agenda
for
this
week,
you'll
see
that
we
have
review
final
agenda
review
draft
agenda
so
on
wednesday.
Before
the
meeting
we'll
have
these
draft
agendas
and
the
rules
committee
will
go
and
do
a
page
by
page
flip.
At
that
point
they
may
ask
to
defer
an
item.
They
may
ask
to
drop
an
item.
A
They
may
ask
to
add
a
time
certain
a
time
certain
is
not
to
be
heard
before
five,
if
they
feel
like
members
of
the
community,
are
really
going
to
want
to
come
out
and
and
talk
about
this
item.
They'll
give
it
a
time
certain.
It
doesn't
mean.
The
item
will
begin
exactly
at
that
time.
It
just
means
it
won't
begin
before
that
time.
A
When
you
go
to
a
rules
meeting-
and
you
want
to
speak
on
an
item,
there
are
a
lot
of
different
items,
and
this
applies
to
all
of
the
different
council
meetings
that
you
would
go
to
they'll
talk
about
this
item
and
then
say:
are
there
any
members
of
the
public
who'd
like
to
speak
on
this
item
when
they
say
that,
then
you
raise
your
hand
to
show
you
want
to
speak
on
this
item.
A
If
you
come
into
a
meeting
and
immediately
raise
your
hand,
they
think
it's
for
this
first
item,
but
really
maybe
you're
thinking
of
an
item
later
in
the
agenda,
so
wait
until
they
ask
for
the
public
comment
for
the
item
and
then
raise
your
hand
and
then
they'll
know.
Okay.
This
is
what
we're
going
to
call
on
you
anyway,
if
your
hand
is
raised,
but
we
may
be
calling
on
you
for
an
item.
You
don't
want
to
talk
about
so
wait
until
we
say.
Does
anybody
wish
to
speak
on
this
item?
A
A
Then,
if
there's
anything
in
these
headings
that
we
just
take
it
one
item
at
a
time
as
we
go
through,
the
public
record.
Public
record
is
for
letters
from
the
public
that
aren't
related
to
an
agenda
item
that
we
have
coming
up.
So
it's
more
general
correspondence
and
then
can
we
have
consent.
Calendar
consent.
A
Calendar
is
where
we
often
have
special
events
that
the
council
are
doing:
flag,
raisings,
litter,
pickups,
fourth
of
july
celebrations,
any
sort
of
special
events
the
council
are
doing,
and
then
here
on
this
particular
day,
which
is
the
meeting
for
february
17th.
A
We
have
an
item
from
councilman
perales
on
protecting
our
asian
pacific
islander
community.
So
the
council
member
submits
a
memo.
This
memo
gets
put
to
put
to
rules
and
then
the
rules
committee
will
talk
about
this
memo
and
say:
do
we
want
to
move
it
to
count
to
the
full
council,
or
maybe
they'll,
say
I
don't
think
we
have
enough?
The
staff
might
be
there
and
say
we
don't
have
enough
information.
A
A
A
A
A
That's
within
the
subject
matter,
jurisdiction
of
the
city
council,
but
is
also
not
on
the
agenda.
It's
not
a
time
to
talk
about
like
item
g2,
because
you
want
to
say
more
about
it.
We've
already
heard
the
public
comment
on
g2.
This
is
really
for
new
business,
that's
not
on
the
agenda
and
then
you
get
two
minutes
just
like
you
do
with
the
other
things,
and
then
we
have
a
german.
A
So
again,
like
most
most
meetings,
we
just
take
the
agenda
from
the
top
to
the
bottom.
In
order,
let
me
know
if
you
have
any
questions.
Thank
you.
