Subject to approval by a majority of council members present at any meeting, any citizen or member of the public may appear and be heard at a meeting of council, provided such person complies with the provisions contained in this section. Any person wanting to be heard must submit a written request twenty-four hours in advance of a council meeting. The clerk shall record the names of such persons for the benefit of the presiding officer and all members of council. No person having made such a request will be permitted to speak for a period in excess of five minutes. For good cause, council may waive the requirement that a citizen or member of the public submit a written request at least twenty-four hours in advance of its meeting; however, if such requirement is waived, the combined amount of time for all speakers who have failed to provide such advance notice shall not exceed thirty minutes. (Ord. 10-90 § 2, 1990)
