*** TELECONFERENCE PROCEDURES ***
Verbal public comments via Teleconference – 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 Housing Authority, and general public for the item(s) by providing him/her with the teleconference information for the meeting and allowing him/her to be queued in to speak. Please note – members of the public must independently queue themselves into the meeting following the instructions provided by the City.
Only one person at a time may speak by telephone and only after being recognized by the Chairperson.
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 Housing Authority, 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 Chairperson, 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.
