In order to facilitate the orderly conduct of the business of the council, the city
clerk shall be provided with all staff reports by the deadline set forth in the city's
administrative regulation established by the city manager. To the maximum extent possible,
all attachment documents, ordinances, resolutions, contracts or other matters shall
be in proper form for city council action at the time they are submitted to the city
clerk. The city clerk shall prepare an agenda listing such matters according to the
order of business and shall furnish each member of the city council, the city manager,
city attorney, and each department director with a copy of the agenda prior to the
council meeting, and as far in advance of the meeting as time will permit. The city
manager, at his discretion, may approve an amendment to the agenda pursuant to the
guidelines established by the city's administration regulations, but by no later than
the public posting of the agenda as required by the Brown Act (California Government
Code Sections 54950 et seq.). In accordance with California Government Code Section
549.54.2, the city council may take action on an item not listed on the agenda if
it makes findings required by Government Code Section 54954.2.
