In addition, public participation at City Council meetings in-person will be permitted.

Those wishing to participate will be asked to adhere to the following guidelines as we will continue to practice social distancing of 6' within the Council Chambers:

• Arrive early, fill out a public participation card located on the desk at the front of the Council seating area, and place it on the Mayor's desk.

• Remain in the lobby of the Council Chambers until you are called upon by the Mayor.

• Once you are done speaking please exit the Council Chambers and the building.
