3. Is there public input during city council meetings?

Yes, the public attending council meetings may speak on any item on the agenda, unless it is the subject of a public hearing that has already closed. If you wish to speak, Speaker Request Forms are located in the Council Chamber. Completely fill out your name, address (no PO boxes), and the agenda on which you plan to speak. Forms need to be handed to the City Recorder as soon as possible in order to allow time to be recognized by the chair. You will be allowed to speak after being recognized by the chair, normally the mayor. Each speaker is given five minutes, and a timing device is used. A minimum of ten copies should be provided for any handouts submitted to the Council.
