J. PUBLIC HEARINGS - NON APPEALS.  This section is for matters (other than appeals) that are structured as Public Hearings. Public hearings are different from regular business items in that there is a specific time period where a formal hearing is opened by the presiding officer, public comment is accepted from any member of the public, and the hearing is closed by the presiding officer.  Generally each public speaker has one opportunity to speak.  The City Council conducts all Public Hearings in accordance with the provisions of applicable Laguna Beach procedure and State law. The presiding officer shall have discretion to establish the time allocated for public comment. | January 27, 2026 Orange County Laguna Beach City Council Item #15 |
