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

Mayor. At that time, speakers should stand and approach the podium. Speakers are asked to state their

commenting and to direct their comments to the Presiding Officer and not to individual Councilmembers.
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
