Good Evening,

I'm sorry you were spoke out in the manner you were the other day. In my opinion...unprofessional. I would think if your name (or anyone's name) was mentioned, there would be an opportunity for any clarification to be stated. I still don't think, feel or believe (4 minutes) is much time to say much. Also, are the public comments recorded and become part of the minutes? If not, I think it would be relevant to require or mandate they are part of record.

Our city is crumbling and seems so divided. I'm sad and angered that this has happened. There are so many thing's that are so far out of control (homeless, mentally ill, drug and alcohol abuse, neglect of roads and buildings, etc.). This has to stop and we need to have Leader's, who are for the people and not their damn pockets or all these favor given and/or handed out.

I hope you are elected...You are what we need. Have a great evening.

Henry,

 

"Roberts Rules of Order Revised" and The City of Topeka Governing Body Rules & Procedures govern meeting proceedings including public comment. View the City of Topeka GB Rules & Procedures online here.  These rules address the conduct of meetings or other procedural matters, such as the order of business, content of reports or length of time that may be spent on a topic of discussion etc.  KOMA mandates that the meeting must be conducted in a way that the public may observe or listen to the proceedings.  

 

Please review GB Rules & Procedures 2.9, 5.5 and 8.11.

 

Thank you.

What is the current city policy for public comment @ open meetings? 

 

The Kansas Open Meetings Act (KOMA), KSA 75-4317 does NOT require public comment. Do the council rules supersede KOMA?
