Public Participation in Meetings

[back to top]
Unless otherwise stated, meetings listed on this page are business meetings of the given governing bodies (i.e., council, committees, boards, and commissions). They are not public forums, and back and forth discussion between members and the audience is not generally allowed. Questions and concerns about both agenda items and issues not appearing on the agenda are best addressed to committees or individual council members prior to the meeting. (Contact information for council members is available here.) Discussion of matters not appearing on the agenda would violate state open meetings laws.

Most city meeting agendas include the opportunity for “public comments.” We have not found a good solution for allowing attendees at virtual meetings to share “live” public comments without increasing our vulnerability to the disruption of attacks known as “Zoom bombing.” Therefore, for virtual meetings, we can only accept written public comments, which will be read aloud to council during the meeting. Written public comments must be received by the city clerk no later than 30 minutes before the meeting’s posted start time.

Passwords & Passcodes

[back to top]
No passwords or passcodes are required to attend virtual council meetings. Virtual committee, commission, and board meetings sometimes require passcodes.

To further reduce our vulnerability to “Zoom bombing” attacks, we do not post meeting passcodes on this page. Instead, you must request your passcode directly from the city clerk during business hours.

Please ensure your request is submitted in time for the clerk to respond during business hours preceding the meeting in question. City hall is open Monday-Friday, 8 a.m.-4:30 p.m.
