The COC wishes to share guidance as to how community listening sessions are conducted at the Committee’s regular meetings. First, as always, the public is welcome at the COC meetings. COC asks that everyone remember to be respectful, even when passions are high. All members of the public are muted during a WebEx Event until recognized to speak by the Chair.
The guidelines are as follows:
- When you join the WebEx call, audience members should type into the Q&A section indicating that you would like to speak during the meeting.
- When recognized by the Chair, please introduce yourself and identify which SMD (or block) you live in. Each speaker will have 3 minutes for comments.
- If someone else has made the point you wished to make, please only say you agree with the point and add any other comments.
