The Mayor, Board Chair, or Presiding Member will invite speakers to address the City Council / Board / Commission at the appropriate time. Please step up to the podium, state your name and address for the record, and share your thoughts on the specific agenda item or topic. You will have 3 minutes in which to address the Council / Board / Commission.
