Attend a Council or Committee Meeting
We have Council meetings every month, with additional extraordinary meetings as required.
You are welcome to attend a Council or Committee meeting to observe, or to share your position on agenda item, either verbally or through a written submission.
To speak at a Council or Committee meeting you must complete a request to speak form by 5pm on the day before the meeting.
After you have completed the request to speak form, you can attend the meeting:
- in person, or
- online (through Microsoft Teams).
If you are providing a written submission, it should be:
- less than five minutes when read out loud
- uploaded with your request to speak form by 5pm on the day before the meeting.
Written submissions are provided directly to the Councillors prior to the meeting.
Once we have received your form, we will send further instructions on how to join the meeting.
