PROCEDURE FOR ADDRESSING THE COMMISSION
Anyone wishing to speak before the Commission must fill out a speaker’s card and submit it to the Executive Assistant
prior to Commission discussion of that Agenda item. Speaker Cards are located in the Council Chamber Lobby and

Speakers will be called in the order in which the speaker cards were received either by the Executive Assistant or the
Commission Chair. At that time, speakers should stand and approach the podium. Speakers are asked to state their
name and whether or not they reside in Fountain Hills (do not provide a home address) prior to commenting and to
direct their comments to the Presiding Officer and not to individual Commission members. Speakers’ statements
should not be repetitive. If a speaker chooses not to speak when called, the speaker will be deemed to have waived his
or her opportunity to speak on the matter. Speakers may not (i) reserve a portion of their time for a later time or (ii)
transfer any portion of their time to another speaker.
If there is a Public Hearing, please submit the speaker card to speak to that issue during the Public Hearing.
Individual speakers will be allowed three contiguous minutes to address the Commission. Time limits may be waived by (i)
discretion of the Community Services Department Director upon request by the speaker not less than 24 hours prior to a
Meeting, (ii) consensus of the Commission at Meeting or (iii) the Chair either prior to or during a Meeting. Please be respectful
when making your comments. If you do not comply with these rules, you will be asked to leave.
Notice is hereby given that pursuant to A.R.S. §1-602.A.9 , subject to certain specified statutory exceptions, parents have a right to
consent before the State or any of its political subdivisions make a video or audio recording of a minor child. Meetings of the Town
Council are audio and/or video recorded, and, as a result, proceedings in which children are present may be subject to such
recording. Parents in order to exercise their rights may either file written consent with the Town Clerk to such recording, or take
personal action to ensure that their child or children are not present when a recording may be made. If a child is present at the time a
recording is made, the Town will assume that the rights afforded parents pursuant to A.R.S. §1-602.A.9 have been waived.
