Procedure for requests to be on agenda

Anyone wishing to have an item placed on the official agenda must contact the County Commission office by Thursday (5 pm) prior to the Tuesday meeting in which they want to address the Commission. Requests must be in writing and must include your name, address and telephone number. We encourage you to also provide any written information or a brief statement regarding your issue. At least one commissioner must approve the item for inclusion in the agenda. When approved, this written information will be reproduced and distributed in the Commission Files, which are provided to the Commissioners for the meeting. This procedure enables the Commissioners to read and research your information to be more prepared to address your item at the meeting.
