A RESOLUTION REGARDING STREAMLINING OF CITY
COUNCIL MEETINGS.
WHEREAS, recent City Council meetings have become quite lengthy; and
WHEREAS, as a consequence of lengthy Council meetings, some members of the

hours before their particular item on the Council agenda is discussed; and
WHEREAS, the Council has adopted and will adopt certain ordinances changes to
help streamline Council meetings; and
WHEREAS, adoption of this Resolution will further aide in the streamlining process.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Council of the City of Bakersfield as
follows:
1. The above recitals and findings are true and correct.
When a City Council Member makes a referral for a workshop, that Council
Member shall be given the opportunity to indicate whether he/she wishes the
workshop to be held at a designated Council Committee level or at the City
Council level. After this designation is made, the entire Council will be given
the opportunity to affirm the Council Member's request.
Public information/public relations workshops will be video-taped and
provided to Council Members who can view the video tapes at times
