Due to COVID-19 precautions, members of the public will not be able to attend the July 13, 2020,
Historic Landmark Commission meeting in-person. To accommodate and receive input on agenda items,
citizens will be able to participate in the following manner:
• Virtual White Card – On Wednesday, July 8, the agenda was posted online at
www.cityofdenton.com/publicmeetings. Once the agenda is posted, a link to the Virtual White Card, an
online form, will be made available under the main heading on the webpage. Within this form, citizens may
indicate support or opposition and submit a brief comment about a specific agenda item. Comments may
be submitted up until the start of the meeting, at which time, the Virtual White Card form will be closed.
Similar to when a citizen submits a white card to indicate their position on the item, these comment forms
will be sent directly to Historic Landmark Commission members and recorded by the Secretary. Historic
Landmark Commissioners review comments received in advance of the meeting and take that public input
into consideration prior to voting on an agenda item. The Chair will announce the number of Cards
submitted in support or opposition to an item during the public comment period. Comments will not be
read during the meeting. The Secretary will reflect the number of comments submitted in favor/opposition
to an item, the registrant’s name, address, and (summary of) comments within the Minutes of the Meeting,
as applicable.
OR
• By phone – Citizens wishing to speak over the phone during this Historic Landmark Commission meeting
may call (940) 349-7800 beginning 30 minutes prior to the meeting start time. Comments by phone will be
accepted until the item is opened for discussion by the Commission. When the call is initially received, a
staff member will receive the caller’s information and either: 1) offer to call the citizen back when it is time
for them to speak, or 2) record the caller’s information, support or opposition, and comment. If the caller
chooses to record their support or opposition, rather than speaking during the meeting, the Chair will
announce the number of comments submitted in support or opposition to the item. If the caller wishes to
receive a call back, the voice of each caller will be broadcast into the meeting during the public commenting
time of their desired agenda item. Individuals will be able to comment once per agenda item.
After determining that a quorum is present, the Historic Landmark Commission of the City of Denton, Texas
will convene in a Regular Meeting on Monday, July 13, 2020 at 3:00 p.m. in the Council Work Session Room
at City Hall, 215 E. McKinney Street, Denton, Texas, at which the following items will be considered:
