The email “subject line” must clearly state “Written Comments” or “Verbal Comments.”

Verbal public comments – requests to speak must be emailed to the Finance Management Assistant, Jessica Delgado, 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 Financial Advisory Commission and general public for the item(s) by contacting him/her via phone and queuing him/her to speak during the discussion. 

Only one person at a time may speak by telephone and only after being recognized by the Chair.

Written public comments, received prior to the adjournment of the meeting, will be distributed to the Financial Advisory Commission, 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 Chair, a brief summary of any public comment is asked to be read, to the extend the Finance Management Assistant 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 Finance Department 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 Finance Department during the course of the meeting. The Chair will endeavor to take a brief pause before action is taken on any agenda item to allow the Management Assistant to review emails and share any public comments received during the meeting. All emails received by the Management Assistant, at the email address above, until the adjournment of the meeting, will be included within the public record relating to the meeting.
