PUBLIC HEARING

Ex parte communications, then, means any information obtained outside of a public hearing. In such public hearing proceedings, the City Council must uphold constitutional and statutory due process rights of present and non -present parties by disclosing ex parte communications. Ex parte communications include oral and written information, as well as visual or auditory information obtained during a site visit.
