Providing Public Input
Providing Public Input by e-mail:
We ask that if you possibly can, submit your public comments by email by the start of the meeting
to the email address listed on the agenda. These will be read per city council rules and time limits*.
Email must be received by the start of public input at the meeting and will only be taken during the
public input portion of the agenda.
Providing Public Input from a computer browser or the Zoom app on a mobile device:
The link to join by computer is listed on the agenda.
You do not need to install software on a computer to use Zoom. You can click “Join from
your browser.” It appears Zoom prefers for users to download and install their meeting
client software on your computer. Choose the option you are comfortable with and note,
these may be browser specific. There is a Zoom app for smartphones.
Make sure you have a microphone on your computer if you wish to speak. Please identify
yourself with first and last name in Zoom for the record if you wish to speak*. FCC
Guidelines will be followed.
Please turn-off any sound from other sources such as UPTV or cable, as there will be a lag
in the audio if you are also watching the meeting. You should see the meeting video stream
through Zoom, see the staff presentation slides, and hear people talking.
We will be muting participants except during public input, when they will be recognized to
speak after raising their hand (see the next bullet point). Video will remain off for all
members of the public, even while they are speaking.
Persons with disabilities needing special services or accommodations for this meeting
should contact the City of Urbana's Americans with Disabilities Coordinator at 384-2466.
