Regular Meeting Agenda
WELCOME
If this is the first time you have been to a Commission meeting, perhaps you'd like to know a little about
our procedure.
Under Oral Communications, at the beginning of the meeting, persons wishing to speak on any subject
not on the Agenda will have 3 minutes to discuss their item. The Clerk will read the name and type of
application to be heard in the order in which it appears on the Agenda. A staff person will then explain
the proposal. The first person allowed to speak will be the applicant, followed by persons in favor of the
application. Then persons who oppose the project or who wish to ask questions will have their turn.
If you wish to speak, please fill out a card (which is available near the entrance door) and give it, as soon
as possible, to the Clerk at the front of the room. When it is your turn, she will announce your name for
the record.
When the Commission is not in session, we'll be pleased to answer your questions if you will go to the
Planning Division, 315 Maple Ave or telephone (650) 877-8535 or by e-mail at
[email protected].
