PUBLIC COMMENTS REGARDING BUSINESS ITEM(S) (3 Minute Time Limit) At approximately 6:00 PM, individuals wishing to provide a comment on agendized or non-agendized items may do so either in person by filling out a Request to Speak form delivered to the City Clerk, via computer through Zoom Webinar ID 971 5413 0528, or Zoom Webinar by phone by calling (669) 900-6833. Once the Mayor opens Public Comments, in-person participants will be called to speak first. Zoom Webinar participants wishing to speak will be provided a 15-minute window to select the “Raise Hand” feature in the Webinar Controls section. Attendees entering the Webinar and requesting to speak by phone can enter *9 to enable the “Raise Hand” feature, followed by the *6 prompt that unmutes their handheld device microphone. Individuals will be prompted to speak when the Clerk announces their name or the last three digits of their phone number. After a virtual speaker concludes their comment, their microphone will be muted but they may remain in Webinar attendance for the duration of the meeting. All speakers are encouraged, but not required to identify themselves by name. Each speaker may have up to 3 minutes unless the volume of speakers warrants reducing the time allowance.
While the City Council welcomes public involvement and free speech, it rejects comments from anyone that are discriminatory, defamatory or otherwise not protected speech. Those comments will not inform nor be considered by the City Council and may be cause for the Mayor to interrupt the public speaker. Such public comments will not be consented to or otherwise adopted by the City Council in its discussions and findings for any matter tonight.
