Sign-Up for Telephonic Testimony at Commission & Board Meetings
To sign-up for telephonic testimony during a Commission or Board meeting, complete the Sign-Up for Telephonic Testimony web-form below or call the City Clerk's Office at 907-235-3130.
Meeting agendas and packets in electronic form can be found online by going to the City's Meeting List and selecting the meeting you are interested in.
WHAT TO EXPECT WHEN TESTIFYING
Public testimony will be heard from citizens in the order in which they have signed up.
For persons who have signed up to testify by phone, the Clerk will call those citizens at the phone number provided when it is your turn to speak. The call is initiated through Zoom and when you answer you'll hear a prompt to be connected to the meeting. Once you're connected please stand by and the Clerk will unmute your line when it's your turn to speak. If you do not answer the phone we will move to the next person on list.
Once you are placed into the meeting, the Presiding Officer will ask that you state your name, spell your last name, and identify your residency, then your 3 minutes will begin.
A few helpful hints when participating telephonically:
- Use a land line and avoid speakerphone, if possible.
- Speak clearly and loudly.
- Ensure a quiet background environment.
- Wait to be called on by the Presiding Officer.
