KINGMAN – The City of Kingman is taking the necessary steps to continue to protect City Council members, its residents, and city team members to help prevent the spread of COVID-19 in the community. The City of Kingman is conducting the Tuesday, August 18, 2020, formal City Council meeting virtually, with the ability for submitted public comment.
Meeting policy, and public comment guidelines for all virtual meetings are listed below:
· Per the ongoing guidelines from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), no more than ten people should be gathered at the same time, therefore no Council or Commission meetings are taking place in the Council Chambers.
· Residents can submit comments on any item on the August 18, City Council agenda before 9:00 a.m. on August 18, by emailing cityclerk@cityofkingman.gov or dropping off handwritten comments at the Main City Complex. (Commission meetings will follow same guidelines for day-of meetings.)
· Please indicate the item number on the agenda item you are commenting. The emails/written statements will be provided to council/commissioners in a .pdf for them to review prior to the meeting. A copy of all submissions in their entirety will be attached to the minutes and made a part of public record.
· Regarding upcoming public hearings at the August 18, virtual meeting: residents wishing to comment on any of the public hearings must contact the city clerk’s office, no later than 9:00 a.m. on the day of that meeting (August 18, 2020, Council meeting). Comments will be accepted in written and standard audio format (.wav or .mp4). Audio comments must be under 3 minutes in length and can be submitted to the city clerk or deputy city clerk by email: cityclerk@cityofkingman.gov, or by dropping them off to the clerk’s office located at 310 N. 4th Street.
· City Clerk’s Office hours are Monday-Thursday, 7:00 a.m. – 6:00 p.m.
