Wheat Ridge City Council prepares for public comments on Lutheran Legacy Campus

During the Wheat Ridge City Council meeting on April 28, 2025, the public was reminded of the speaking protocol, emphasizing the importance of community engagement. Residents were invited to share their thoughts, with a clear system in place for managing speaking times.

City Clerk officials outlined the process, using colored lights to signal time limits for speakers. A solid green light indicates the start, while a blinking green light warns of 30 seconds remaining. As the light shifts to yellow, speakers have just 15 seconds left, and a red light signals the end of their time.

The council noted that members could choose to respond to comments made after public speakers finish. While a few residents had signed up to speak, the council clarified that comments on the Lutheran Legacy Campus agenda item would be reserved for later in the meeting, ensuring structured discussion.

This meeting highlights the city’s commitment to transparency and community involvement, setting the stage for future discussions on important local issues.
