Ways to Contact the City Council

Public Hearing Comments

Public hearings are one way that the City collects feedback on specific decisions. The goal of a public hearing is to ensure all perspectives have been surfaced and considered. You can also provide public comments on our community board "Our Community, Your Voice".

Community Comment During a City Council Meeting

Community Comment is a time on the agenda for the public to raise issues or make comments during a Council meeting. Individuals have a specified time to speak and are asked to provide their name and address. Community Comments can be related to 1) an item on the current meeting agenda, 2) a topic planned for a future public hearing, 3) a topic for which a public hearing was held in the preceding 30 days.

Email the Mayor and all Council Members at 

Emails sent to this address are received and read by the Mayor and all Council Members. Due to open meeting laws, Council Members cannot engage in back-and-forth emails involving a quorum of three or more members. As a result, you might receive a response from all members, or you might receive a response from a staff member.

Contact the Mayor of Individual Council Members by Phone, Email, or Letter

All Council Members are elected by either their designated district or at-large, which means they represent their specific section of the City or the entire City. Contact information for each member is located on the right (desktop) or the bottom of this page (mobile).
