A. CALL TO ORDER:
Chairman Marshall or his designee:
I would like to call the Emergency Telephone System Board meeting for December 17, 2020 to
order.
On Friday, June 12, 2020, an amendment to the Open Meetings Act was signed into law. This
new law replaces the gubernatorial executive order concerning the Open Meetings Act and
allows public bodies to temporarily conduct meetings remotely during a state of emergency,
subject to certain requirements, including a determination by the head of the public body that an
in-person meeting is not practical or prudent.
On Tuesday, June 16, 2020, Mayor Chirico issued an executive order determining that in-person
meetings of the City Council and the City’s boards and commissions are not currently practical or
prudent due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
Accordingly, we are once again holding the Emergency Telephone System Board meeting
remotely. The commissioners and staff participating in today’s meeting are all in different
locations in accordance with social distancing guidelines.
Any individual desiring to listen and/or participate in the meeting by telephone, or through the
electronic meeting platform known as Zoom, has also been provided that opportunity using the
log-in information provided on the Agenda for tonight’s meeting.
Just a reminder that all speakers are asked to present their comments in a respectful and
courteous manner. If inappropriate language or comments are expressed during this meeting,
we will mute the speaker and end their participation.
