COVID- 19 PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT REGARDING COUNCIL MEETING ACCESS AND PUBLIC COMMENT:
Until further notice, City Council meetings will be conducted pursuant to the provisions of California Government Code section 54953(e), added by Assembly Bill 361, which allows the City to use teleconferencing and to provide the public an opportunity to address the City Council via a call-in option or an internet-based service option, during a proclaimed state of emergency.
Additionally, the Council has approved Temporary Rules as amended on April 5, 2022 to be used until further notice.
During the State of Emergency related to the COVID-19 pandemic and in the interest of public health and safety, some, if not all, City Councilmembers may be participating in the City Council meetings via a virtual teleconference platform. Members of the public in attendance at the City Council meetings are encouraged to maintain social distancing in Chamber. Additionally, we are continuing to provide alternatives to in-person attendance for participating in City Council meetings.
How To Speak To A Particular Item or during Non-Agenda Public Comment:
In Person
Please fill out a speaker slip located at the entrance to Council Chambers. Indicate the item you wish to speak on as well as other requested information. Then submit it to the Clerk at the box indicated near the speaker’s lectern at the front of the room.
Via Virtual Platform
When the Clerk introduces the item you would like to comment on (or indicates it is time for Non-Agenda Public Comment), raise your hand by either tapping the “Raise Your Hand” button on your computer, tablet, or Smartphone, or by dialing *9 on your phone. You will be taken in the order in which you raised your hand. You may only speak once on a particular item.
When the Clerk indicates it is your turn to speak, unmute your phone by tapping the Unmute button on your computer, tablet or Smartphone, or dial *6 on your phone.
Members of the public who wish to provide virtual testimony must enter the virtual queue by raising their hand before the queue closes. The queue will close when the last virtual speaker finishes speaking or five minutes after in-person testimony ends, whichever happens first.
Joining the Webinar and Offering Phone-in Testimony
The City Council meetings will continue to be held virtually using the Zoom Webinar platform.
Members of the public can offer public comment on agendized items or during Non-Agenda Public Comment by accessing the meeting online using a desktop computer, laptop, tablet, or Smartphone, or by calling into the meeting using a Smartphone, cellular phone, or land line.
