- 2 Welcome to the Idaho Falls City Council Meeting.
- 3 Regularly scheduled Council meetings are open to any member of the general public either in person or via live stream on the City website and are archived on the City website (idahofalls.gov). 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. The Council is committed to an atmosphere that promotes equal opportunity and is free from discrimination or harassment. All those who wish to address City Council during the public comment period are encouraged to adhere to the following guidelines.

- 1. State their name and address.
- 2. Focus comments on matters within the purview of the City Council.
- 3. Limit their comments to three (3) minutes or less.
- 4. Refrain from repeating information already presented in order to preserve time for others to speak. Large groups are encouraged to select one or two speakers to represent the voice of the whole group.
