How to Attend Meetings

Beginning in November 2022, meetings for all commissions, boards and committees may be attended remotely by members of the public via Webex, in addition to attending in person.

Attend In-Person:  Indoor masking is highly recommended, but not required, at City Council, Commission, Board and Committee meetings.

Attend Remotely: New way to attend - no registration needed! Just click on the meeting date and you will be joined when the meeting begins. When you join the Webex meeting you have a choice of how to receive the audio. The best way is to select the “call me” option and enter your phone number. As a reminder, chat function allows you to send a message to the meeting host only.

View-Only Remotely - Meetings of the City Council, Civil Service Commission, Cultural Affairs Commission, Parks, Recreation, and Community Services Commission, and Planning Commission may be viewed live online by clicking on the “In Progress” meeting or on the Culver City YouTube channel

 

How to Request to Speak at Meetings

There are two ways in which to speak on an agenda item during the meeting: Live in-person or remotely via Webex.

Advance Request to Speak

Those interested in providing a public comments are strongly encouraged to request to speak as soon after the agenda is posted, to ensure inclusion on the speaker list.

Select the appropriate Meeting Date in the "Request to Speak at a Meeting" section to the right, indicate how you will attend (in-person or virtually) and specify the agenda item(s) on which you wish to speak by selecting the agenda item number (for example A-1, PH-2, C-3.) At the start of each agenda item, staff will read the names of those who have requested to speak in advance on an agenda item.

After the Start of the Meeting

Those attending in-person shall register in the Mike Balkman Council Chambers when they arrive, via a virtual speaker card by clicking the QR CODE or on a signup sheet. Those attending virtually shall send a "chat" to the host to request to speak. 

Speakers will be called in chronological order, based on when they registered to speak. At the start of each agenda item, staff will read aloud the names of those who have requested to speak on an agenda item. Requests to speak that are received after the start of the public comment period for that agenda item will not be considered until the end of the meeting. 

No Internet? How to Call in to Speak

If you have no way to join via internet, you may join the meeting by calling on your phone. 

For this option, you will need to contact the City Clerk’s Office and provide your name, phone number and the Agenda Item about which you wish to speak so that we can find you and allow you to talk.

This option does not allow for you to view the meeting. You may City Council and commission meetings via cable or online) but please remember to mute the tv or computer so that there is no echo when you speak.

  • Persons who are present in the meeting may cede one minute of time to one other person per agenda item who is also present and wishes to address the Legislative Body by providing a Request to Speak to the City Clerk with the appropriate box checked and the name of the person to whom time is ceded.
