Items not on the agenda may not be discussed or acted upon except under emergency circumstances. (Government Code Section 54954.2).
Copies of the staff reports or other documentation relating to each item of business referred to on the agenda are on file in the Office of the City Clerk, available for public inspection during City Hall business hours, and in the Library the Friday before the meeting. If requested, the agenda and supporting documents shall be made available in alternative formats to persons with a disability. The City Clerk will answer any questions regarding the agenda.

Proclamation
declaring the month of September 2006 as:
“NATIONAL ALCOHOL AND DRUG
ADDICTION RECOVERY MONTH”
in the City of Santa Maria, and urging the residents
to observe this month with appropriate programs, activities, and ceremonies
supporting this year’s theme, “Join the Voices for Recovery: Build a Stronger, Healthier Community.”
The Council values your input. Individual speakers are limited to three minutes or as directed by the Mayor. To address the Council you are asked to fill out a Request to Speak Form and provide it to City Staff PRIOR TO this part of the agenda. This assists the Clerk in accurately preparing the minutes of the meeting. Once the public comment period commences, no other speakers will be allowed to submit a Request to Speak Form. This time is reserved to accept comments from the public on Consent Agenda items, Closed Session items, or matters not otherwise scheduled on this agenda. Direction to staff may be given; however, State law does not allow action to be taken by the Council on matters not on the printed agenda at this meeting. The law requires that notice be given to the public at large to allow for full disclosure and discussion and decisions on important public issues. To have City Council discussions and decisions on unnoticed items would prevent the type of public input necessary to make governmental decisions.
The Consent Calendar is approved by roll call vote with one motion. These items are discussed only on request of Councilmembers. Members of the public may speak on Consent Calendar items during the Public Comment Period. See attached yellow sheets for further information. (Estimated time: 3 minutes unless items are discussed.)
