PUBLIC HEARING
For the benefit of the public, prior to a public hearing item, each member of the City Council will
disclose any ex parte communications they may have had pertaining to the item. In simple terms,
public hearings are quasi-judicial proceedings and the information used by the City Council to
make its decisions should be limited to that which is obtained during the public hearing. Ex parte
communications, then, means any information obtained outside of a public hearing. In such public
hearing proceedings, the City Council must uphold constitutional and statutory due process
rights of present and non-present parties by disclosing ex parte communications. Ex parte
communications include oral and written information, as well as visual or auditory information
obtained during a site visit.
Individuals wishing to provide a comment on an item scheduled for Public Hearing may do so
either in person by filling out a Request to Speak form delivered to the City Clerk, via computer
through Zoom Webinar ID 971 5413 0528, or Zoom Webinar by phone by calling (669) 900-6833.
