How to Participate
If you would like to provide comments to the City Council, please:
• Fill out a speaker request form, located in the foyer.
• Submit the form to the City Clerk before the item begins.
• When it’s your turn, the City Clerk will call your name and invite you to the podium.
• For non-agenda public comment, speakers must confine their remarks to matters within the City Council’s subject
matter jurisdiction.
• For public comment on agenda items, speakers must confine their remarks to the question or matter under
consideration.
• Speakers have three minutes, unless the presiding officer (usually the Mayor) changes that time.
• You may not give your time to another person, but can create a group. A group must select a single speaker as long
as three other members of your group are present. All forms must be submitted to the City Clerk before the item
begins and will only be accepted for items listed on the agenda (not for general public comment at the beginning of
the meeting). Group representatives have 10 minutes unless that time is changed by the presiding officer or the City
Council.
• Failure to comply with the rules for public participation is disruptive conduct. Continuing disruptive conduct after
being asked by the presiding official to cease may result in removal from the meeting.
