No public commenters at San Gabriel special meeting; clerk reiterates participation rules
Summary
During the July 21 special meeting the chief city clerk told attendees the meeting was livestreamed and explained how to sign up to speak; the clerk then reported there were no public comment cards and no remote speakers for the public-comment item.
The chief city clerk reminded attendees that the special meeting was being livestreamed and that public comment was limited to items on the agenda, and explained how to participate remotely and how to sign up in person.
"Public comment is for items on this agenda only," the chief city clerk said, and directed residents to the city's website for remote participation procedures and to complete and submit a speaker's card to address the council in person. For the public-comment period, the clerk reported there were no in-person speaker cards and no speakers participating remotely, and the council heard no public comments on the agenda item.
The clerk also asked that speakers state their names for the record and reminded attendees that interactions during meetings are subject to the city's rules of order and decorum. The special meeting proceeded to a closed session shortly afterward.
