Public Hearings and Speak to Council Session

The City Council holds public hearings as required by law for specific legislative items on the agenda, as well as a monthly Speak to Council session.  These meetings are open to the public in order to allow an opportunity for constituents to voice their opinions, ideas, concerns or support for either legislation that the Council will be voting on that month, or any other issue that may be affecting the community.

For the month of February, public hearings will be held for the following pieces of legislation:

          Int. No. 35 – Authorizing the sale of 160 Clifton Street

            Int. No. 43 – Amending the Official Map by abandoning a portion of Blossom Road right-of-way

Any person wishing to speak on these matters may do so during the public hearing. Advance sign-up to speak at public hearings is not required. 

A copy of these introductory item can be found in the February Proposed Legislation found on the City's website. 

The Speak to Council session will begin immediately following the conclusion of the public hearings.

Advance sign up is required for citizens who wish to address the Council during the Speak to Council session.  All persons desiring to speak must sign up no later than 4:30 p.m. on the day of the Speak to Council session. 

Constituents can register to speak by calling (585) 428-7538. Dependent upon the total number of speakers, individuals will be given a maximum of 3 minutes, or a minimum of 2 minutes, to share their thoughts.
