Nutter Fort to require public-comment sign-up the Thursday before meetings
Summary
Council discussed and recorded a new public-comment sign-up rule: anyone wishing to speak must sign up by the Thursday before the meeting and will be subject to a set time limit.
Council members discussed tightening the public-comment process and recorded a new sign-up requirement. Minutes state: "Any individual wishing to speak at a meeting under Public Comment will need to sign up the Thursday before the meeting, by contacting the office of the Town of Nutter Fort and there will be a set limit of time to for any speaker."
The change was presented as a procedural clarification to manage meeting flow; the minutes do not record the length of the time limit or whether exceptions will be allowed. The rule will apply to future meetings once the policy is implemented and staff notify the public.
