Public Participation Expectations

Verbally clarify for the public:
- That their input is encouraged regardless of what others say
- What topics are appropriate at what times in the meeting
- How long they should expect to speak for
- That public input is not a time for discussion with Council members. Don’t expect an immediate response.
- Public comments should not be more than 4 minutes and should not be repetitive.
Provide Guidelines for Speakers on the back of every Council Meeting Agenda.
Council members should show gratitude and validation of public comments and ask clarifying questions but not respond or engage in discussion with the public during a Council Meeting.
