Per the Kansas Open Meetings Act, the City Commission is not required to entertain any comments from the public during any meeting, especially during a state of emergency. For hybrid or virtual meetings, the normal citizen comment process will be modified. Citizens who wish to address the City Commission are encouraged to contact City staff prior to this meeting to be placed on the agenda, with the consent of the Mayor. During this meeting, citizens who log into the meeting from their computer, tablet or smartphone are welcome to ask questions using the text Chat feature. Any questions will be forwarded from City staff to the Mayor, who may choose to allow further comment.
The following rules must be strictly adhered to by all citizens wishing to speak during a virtual/hybrid meeting, whether they are on the agenda or recognized by the Mayor during the meeting itself:
- Each speaker will state his or her name and address before making any comments.
- Each speaker will have three (3) minutes to present his or her comments.
- Comments or questions will be directed only to the City Commission.
- Debate or argument between parties in the audience will not be allowed. “Logged in” citizens will remain
muted during the meeting, unless recognized and called upon specifically by the Mayor.
- Repeated reiterations by speakers will not be allowed.
- Violations of comment procedure will result in being directed to cease speaking or being muted.
Note: All matters listed below on the Consent Agenda are considered under one motion and enacted by one motion. There should be no separate discussion. If such discussion is desired, any item may be removed from the Consent Agenda and then considered separately under Section VII: New Business.
