COUNCIL RULE 4.505 DISRUPTION OF MEETING

Rules Committee · 2026-05-18 · agenda_item

The City of Jacksonville Rules Committee is reviewing a proposed change to Council Rule 4.505, which deals with disruptions during public meetings. This rule outlines behaviors that could lead to a person being removed from a meeting, including political campaigning, excessive noise or movement, displaying signs, audible electronic devices, consuming alcohol, offensive remarks, refusing to stop speaking, or returning after removal. The item is currently pending review. This review does not involve physical construction or site work, but rather the establishment of meeting conduct policies. The primary opportunity for local businesses lies in providing services related to the enforcement and management of public meetings, such as security or administrative support. Early engagement with the city could be beneficial as policies are finalized.
