DESCRIPTION:
The City Council recently adopted amendments to Dublin Municipal Code (DMC) Chapter 2 12
related to the Planning Commission. Please refer to the City Council Staff Report and Ordinance
for details regarding these amendments (Attachments 1 and 2)
Chapter 212 requires, among other things, that the Planning Commission adopt rules for
conducting meetings (Section 2.12.040.C). The existing Rules were last amended in 2005
(Attachment 3) These rules are no longer consistent with Chapter 2 12 or current practices.
Therefore, Staff is proposing the adoption of new Rules for Conducting Planning Commission
Meetings (Attachment 4).
The proposed Planning Commission rules are based on the Rules for Conducting City Council
meetings. The proposed rules are consistent with the recent amendments to DMC Chapter 2.12,
consistent with current practices, and reflect changes in applicable laws which include the
Brown Act. The proposed rules provide a framework for running Planning Commission
meetings, maintaining decorum, and opportunities for members of the public to address the
Planning Commission.
