TIME: Planning Commission meetings b(;gin at 7:00 p.m.. No new public hearing item will begin after 10:30 p.m., and the
meetings will be adjourned by 11:00 p.m., except under unusual circumstrnces where the Commission votes to hear
the item or to extend the meeting for 30-minute increments.
ITEMS NOT ON THE AGENDA: No action shall be taken on any item not appearing on the posted agenda unless: 1) the
Planning Commission determines by majority vote that an emergency situation exists, as defined in the Government
Code; 2) the Planning Commission determines by a two-thirds vote, or b) a unanimous vote if only three members
are present, that the need to take action arose after the agenda was posted, or 3) the item was included in a posted
agenda for a prior meeting held within five (5) calendar days and was cor tinued to the current meeting.

2. Questions by Planning Commission
3. Comments by Applicant
4. Comments by Others in Favor
5. Comments by Those in Opposition
6. Rebuttal by Applicant if Necessary
