March 24 Addison City Council Meeting Moves to Video Conferencing

The Addison City Council will hold its Tuesday, March 24 Council Meeting by video conferencing to test the format. When possible, they currently plan to hold meetings in the parlor at Town Hall where they can conform to the CDC's social distancing guidelines, however wanted to test this virtual option.  The meeting will still be live streamed on the Town's website and its PEG channels (channel 99 for AT&T subscribers, channel 16 for Spectrum subscribers).  The meeting agenda can be found here.

The city was able to forego the requirement that public meetings be held in a physical space because of a recent order from Gov. Greg Abbott that suspended a portion of the Texas Open Meetings Act.

Opportunities for public comment will still take place at the beginning of the meeting.  Members of the public who would like to participate remotely can:

• Call this toll-free dial-in number: 877-853-5247; 
• Enter Meeting ID: 409 327 0683#, and
• Select # when prompted to enter a participant ID. 

Once in the meeting, visitors will be recognized by Council during the public comment time. Please remember that normal rules for public comment apply so please state your name and address before beginning your comments.  You will be allowed three minutes to speak and Council isn't permitted to respond during this time.

Please note that if you are viewing a meeting via a live streaming process there will be a delay in the video since video takes time to transmit over the Internet to your device  You can also email comments to the City Secretary at iparker@addisontx.gov by 3pm on March 24.
