PARTICIPATION IN TOWN COUNCIL DELIBERATIONS
Citizen participation at Council meetings is encouraged.
Regular Town Council meetings are held at 6:30 PM on the 1st and
3rd Wednesday of each month in the Edgewood Community Center,
located at 27 E. Frontage Road.
Council meeting agendas and minutes may be reviewed by
clicking on the appropriate button at the left side of this
screen. Agenda information is also available by calling the Town
Offices at (505) 286-4518. Complete agenda packets, including
the supporting staff reports, are available for review in the
Town Clerk's office on the Friday before each Council meeting.
If you would like a paper copy of the agenda prior to the
meeting, please stop by Town Hall at 1911 Highway 333.
Every effort is made to assure that citizens have ample
opportunity to address the Council on items of individual or
community concern.
Persons who wish to address the Council on an unagendized
item may do so during the "Public Comment" section of the agenda
by signing up at the beginning of the meeting. Upon arriving at
the podium, state your name for the record; there is a time
limit on remarks of two minutes. As an unagendized item, the
Council may not take action; however, it may agendize the item
for a future meeting.
Those who desire to speak at a Public Hearing may do so once
the hearing has been opened by the Mayor and the staff has
completed its report. When addressing the Council, keep your
presentation brief. Also, keep in mind that the Town Council
usually has other business to conduct at its meetings within a
limited time.
Those who would like the Council to agendize an item may send
a formal written request to the Edgewood Mayor, P.O. Box 3610,
Edgewood, NM 87015 or may send an
email . The request will be reviewed by the Mayor and
the citizen will be notified of the result of this review. |
