Take part in a decision

Follow City business

Check the meeting notice, read the agenda and supporting packet, and find out when public comment is taken. A workshop can discuss an issue without a final vote. The official record controls what Council actually did.

Public service notice

The City currently lists a Level 1 drought response. Its notice explains conservation steps and landscape watering hours. Check the City alert for current guidance.
