Public Comment at May 20th City Council Meeting Regarding Bill No. 1040-C.S. - Campin

The City of Eureka will provide up to three hours of public comment during the City Council meeting scheduled for Tuesday, May 20, 2025, regarding Item H.1 - Bill No. 1040-C.S., the proposed Camping Ordinance.

The City Council has heard over eight hours of public testimony on this item, beginning with the Special Meeting held on January 14, 2025, and continuing over multiple meetings, including over four hours of comment during the March 18, 2025 session. To ensure the Council can continue its legislative responsibilities while providing additional opportunities for community input, the Council will allocate 180 minutes (three hours) specifically for public comment on this item at the upcoming meeting.

Individual speaking times will be determined based on the number of speakers who indicate that they wish to address the Council, divided proportionally into the total available time. As permitted under the California Brown Act, the Presiding Officer/Mayor may adjust the total comment period to ensure sufficient time remains to address other business on the Council's agenda.

Community members are strongly encouraged to submit written comments in advance by emailing [email protected]. All written comments will be provided to the Council and entered into the public record.
