Please be aware that the meeting agenda may differ at times because amendments to the agenda may be made by the Council during the meeting. The Council encourages public input. While general public comment is not required by Idaho law, the Council welcomes general public comment as part of the City Council meeting. General public comment will be allowed for up to 20 minutes on the agenda. The public is always welcome to contact their Council representatives via e-mail or telephone, as listed on the City website.
