City meetings in April and May will be held virtually in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. To help protect the health and safety of the community, City staff have devised multiple ways for the public to participate remotely in City Council meetings before and during the live meeting.
Public comment prior to a meeting
Members of the public interested in providing comments prior to a meeting should send an email to heidi.heller@littlecanadamn.org.
Written public comments will be compiled and delivered to all Council and/or Commission members.
Public comment during a meeting
Members of the public who wish to comment during public comment periods will be asked to join the meeting on the Zoom webinar platform. Meeting attendees should click the raise hand button during the appropriate comment period to alert city staff that would like to comment. Individuals will be recognized and their microphones will be enabled allowing them to comment.
