PARTICIPATION IN THE PUBLIC PROCESS
The Town of Los Gatos strongly encourages your active participation in the public process, which is the
cornerstone of democracy. If you wish to speak to an item on the agenda, please complete a “speaker’s
card” located on the back of the chamber benches and return it to the Clerk Administrator. If you wish to
speak to an item NOT on the agenda, you may do so during the “verbal communications” period. The
time allocated to speakers may change to better facilitate the Town Council meeting
The purpose of the Town Council meeting is to conduct the business of the community in an effective and
efficient manner. This is done by following meeting guidelines set forth in State law and in the Town
Code. Conduct which is considered disruptive during Town Council meetings include, but is not limited
to:
• Addressing the Town Council without first being recognized;
• Interrupting speakers, Town Council, and Town staff;
• Continuing to speak after the allotted time has expired;
• Failing to relinquish the podium when directed to do so; and
• Repetitiously addressing the same subject
For the benefit of the community, the Town of Los Gatos asks that you follow the Town’s meeting
guidelines while attending Town Council meetings and treat everyone with respect and dignity.
