Difficulties:
The Public Comment section offers an opportunity for any citizen to express opinions or ask questions
regarding City services, policies or other matters of community concern, and any agenda items that are
not a part of a scheduled public hearing. Citizens will have three minutes for comments if they are
speaking as an individual, or five minutes if speaking on behalf of a group or organization. These time
limits were established to provide efficiency in the conduct of the meeting and to allow equal opportunity
for everyone wishing to speak. An immediate response should not be expected, as issues are typically
referred to City staff for follow-up or research and are then reported back to Council and the individual
who initiated the comment or inquiry.
In addition, written comments or materials for presentation to Council may be submitted to the
City Clerk at bsetterlind@centennialco.gov prior to the meeting. Any comments received prior to
the meeting will be provided to the Mayor and Council Members prior to the meeting and made
part of the record by the City Clerk.
