Committee updates public-comment and remote-participation rules for URA meetings
Summary
The facilitator outlined rules for in-person and Zoom public comment: speaker forms are required for in-room comments, Zoom attendees will be muted on entry and must identify themselves, and public comment is limited to URA agenda items with a three-minute time limit.
The facilitator explained rules for public comment and remote participation at the start of the meeting, saying speaker forms must be completed for in-person comments and that Zoom participants are muted on entry and must identify themselves if their device does not display a full name.
"If you're joining today's meeting via Zoom, you will automatically be muted upon entry, and you'll need to identify yourself if your full name is not already attached to the device being used," the facilitator said. The facilitator added that public comments will only be taken for Urban Renewal Agency agenda items and will be limited to three minutes per speaker, and directed interested citizens to contact city hall for more information.
The procedures were presented as the committee opened the meeting and are now the stated process for public comment during URA sessions recorded in the transcript.
