Garden Grove City Council Meetings to Offer Hybrid Participation

Beginning with the Tuesday, August 11 meeting, community members will have new options to participate in Garden Grove City Council meetings remotely and access meeting information in additional languages. The changes follow Senate Bill 707, the Brown Act Modernization Act, which took effect July 1 and expands public access to local government meetings.

City Council meetings will continue to be held in person at the Garden Grove Community Meeting Center, located at 11300 Stanford Avenue. Community members will also be able to join through Zoom or by telephone to listen and provide live public comment. Remote speakers will be accommodated during the same public comment periods as those attending in person.

The new options supplement existing ways to participate. Community members may continue to attend meetings in person or submit written comments by 3 p.m. on the meeting date by emailing [email protected]. Instructions for submitting comments by in-person, virtually, e-mail or mail are also available at https://ggcity.org/city-council/meetings-participation.

The City Council remains on its scheduled summer recess, with no regular meeting on Tuesday, July 28. Regular meetings will resume Tuesday, August 11, at 6:30 p.m. Meeting agendas are posted at least 72 hours in advance at https://ggcity.org/city-clerk.
