continuing to speak after notice that the allotted time has expired; presenting comments or material not
relevant to the item under discussion; failing to comply with the lawful instructions of the presiding
officer; or engaging in other conduct, activity, or speech that delays, disturbs, or interferes with the

Please fill out a “Request to be Heard” form located outside the Council Chambers, and submit it to a
