Coronavirus / COVID-19

Because of the governor's emergency Executive Order No. 20-16 (April 15) about coronavirus (COVID-19), the Commission will meet remotely by telephone/video conference, and City Hall will remain closed to the public.

View Online Instead of Visiting City Hall

The City directs that anyone who wishes to comment or testify to do so in writing via either e-mail or mail and not to attempt to enter City Hall.  See "Where Do I Send Comments?" below.

How Can I See a Project to Comment on It before the Conference?

The staff report(s) published a week prior to the meeting through this webpage will include select site plans and documents, and fuller application materials are available for a project through the applicable project webpage found via the City Projects webpage.

Want to see more than what's on a project webpage?  Contact staff.  There might be more that staff can upload.
