I have a proposal for an agenda item.

I would like the council to decide on the removal of the requirement
that everything must come as an agenda item so they can be allowed to
make decisions in a timely manner, if necessary.  Of course, with my
proposal, the council can always decide themselves that something is not
an emergency, and postpone decision, or even require that the item go
for discussion before a decision is made, but the current agenda
requirement blocks the ability for quick decisions.

Thanks,
