   We will ask you to take an oath that all evidence and testimony presented during the public hearing are truthful.
   Citizens’ Input Concerning City Topics

   minutes. Remember, appearances before the Commission are not a substitute for attempting to resolve your issue(s) through the appropriate administrative channels.
   Citizens’ Input is to allow
   citizens the opportunity to present their view on matters concerning City topics but not on items scheduled elsewhere on the Agenda.
   Questions and answers shall not be permitted.
   Matters presented to the Commission may be referred by the Mayor, with consensus of the Commission, to the Administration for action and possible follow-up at a future Commission meeting. We expect that citizens have first attempted to speak directly with the City’s Administration.

We ask that your comments be limited to the subject of the Agenda Item.
