Pursuant to Executive Orders N-25-20, N-29-20, N-33-20, N-35-20, and N-60-20 executed by the Governor of California, in response to the state of emergency relating to novel coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) and enabling teleconferencing accommodations by suspending or waiving specified provisions in the Ralph M. Brown Act (Government Code § 54950 et seq.), members of the City Council, the City Manager, City Attorney, City Staff, and City Consultants may participate in this regular meeting by teleconference. Additionally, pursuant to the above-referenced executive orders, members of the public temporarily are not permitted to physically attend at City Hall the meeting to which this agenda applies, but any member of the public may listen or participate in the open session of this meeting as specified below.
Members of the public wanting to address the City Council, either for public comment or for a specific agenda item, or both, may do so via teleconference by sending an email notification to the La Quinta City Clerk’s Office at CityClerkMail@LaQuintaCA.gov, and specify the following information:
1) Full Name 2) City of Residence 3) Phone Number
4) Public Comment or Agenda Item Number 5) Subject 6) Written or Telephonic Verbal Comments
The email “subject line” must clearly state “Written Comments” or “Telephonic Verbal Comments.”
Telephonic verbal public comments – requests to speak must be emailed to the City Clerk no later than 3:00 p.m. on the day of the meeting; the City will facilitate the ability for a member of the public to be audible to the City Council, and general public for the item(s) by contacting him/her via phone and queuing him/her to speak.
Only one person at a time may speak by telephone and only after being recognized by the Mayor.
Written public comments must be received by the City Clerk’s Office no later than 3:00 p.m. on the day of the meeting, and will be distributed to the City Clerk, incorporated into the agenda packet and public record of the meeting, and will not be read during the meeting unless, upon the request of the Mayor, a brief summary of any public comment is asked to be read, to the extent the City Clerk’s Office can accommodate such request.
It would be appreciated that any email communications for public comments related to the items on the agenda, or for general public comment, are provided to the City Clerk’s Office at the email address listed above prior to the commencement of the meeting. If that is not possible, and to accommodate public comments on items that may be added to the agenda after its initial posting or items that are on the agenda, every effort will be made to attempt to review emails received by the City Clerk’s Office during the course of the meeting. The Chairperson will endeavor to take a brief pause before action is taken on any agenda item to allow the City Clerk to review emails and share any public comments received during the meeting. All emails received by the City Clerk, at the email address above, until the adjournment of the meeting, will be included within the public record relating to the meeting.
