Remarks shall be addressed to Planning Commission as a body and not to any member of the Planning Commission, staff or the public. State law prohibits Commission action on non - agenda items because the public would be unaware prior to the meeting of any potential action.

Any member of the public may remove an item from the Consent Calendar by submitting a "PINK' speaker slip to the Commission Secretary. The Planning Commission will then proceed with consideration of the remaining Consent Calendar. The Consent Calendar will be enacted upon with one motion, and the ordinances being read by title will be waived. There will be no separate discussion of these matters.
