To All Citizens Appearing Under Public Comment

The Commission has a rule which does not allow discussion on any matter which is brought up under Public Comment. We are, however, very happy to listen to you.

The Commission may wish to ask questions regarding this matter, but will not be required to do so. At the next or subsequent Commission meeting you may have one of the Commissioners introduce your matter as his or her recommendation. We wish to thank you for taking the time to bring this matter to our attention. Under no circumstances will personal attacks, either from the public or from the dais, be tolerated.
