CONTINUANCES BY
COMMISSIONS AND BOARDS 1 of 1 12/10/80 205
It is a policy of the City Council that Commissions and Boards shall be prepared to
promptly deal with all matters that come before them for consideration. No item shall be
continued more than once before it is forwarded to the City Council for their consideration
with a recommendation for approval or denial. If a Commission or Board has not had
adequate time or has not had sufficient information to come to a decision on an issue after
one continuance, the Commission or Board shall forward the matter to the City Council
nonetheless. The Council will then make the final determination based on the information
available.
Furthermore, all public hearings are noticed as required by law, and therefore, public
hearings held by Commissions and Boards shall not be continued simply because of poor
attendance or lack of public input at a noticed hearing.
