Resident urges enforcement of public-participation rules and warns against misinformation
Summary
A resident cited Section 2-221 of the code of ordinances and asked the commission to enforce rules on speaking to agenda items, decorum and online comment moderation, criticizing deletion of corrective remarks and misrepresentation.
During public comment, a member of the public (Resident / Public commenter, S7) urged the commission to follow code provisions covering public participation and decorum, specifically citing "Section 2-221, public participation in city commission meetings." The speaker asked that comments be limited to agenda topics and criticized what they described as deletion of corrective comments on social media and the spread of misinformation.

The remarks were framed as a request for procedural compliance and greater transparency; the transcript does not show an immediate staff or commission response to the specific enforcement or moderation concerns raised.
