Civic Center Theater
CITY COUNCIL AGENDA



Pursuant to Phase 4 of Governor Pritzker's Executive Order, a maximum of 50 people will be allowed in the Civic Center Theater unless said number is otherwise directed by Order of the Governor. If the number is altered as a result of an Order of the Governor, the City of Decatur will follow and enforce that number. An in-person meeting of all members of the City Council of the City of Decatur as well as in-person meetings of all members of other Boards and Commissions of the City of Decatur is not practical or prudent because of the COVID-19 pandemic.

VIDEO13.Consent Calendar: Items on the Consent Agenda/Calendar are matters requiring City Council approval or acceptance, but which are routine and recurring in nature, are not controversial, are matters of limited discretion, and about which little or no discussion is anticipated. However, staff’s assessment of what should be included on the Consent Agenda/Calendar can be in error. For this reason, any Consent Agenda/Calendar item can be removed from the Consent Agenda/Calendar by any member of the governing body, for any reason, without the need for concurrence by any other governing body member. Items removed from the Consent Agenda/Calendar will be discussed and voted on separately from the remainder of the Consent Agenda/Calendar.
