July 14 City Council Meeting Will Be Virtual

City Council Will Meet Virtually July 14

Air Conditioning Issue Prompts Change to Remote Session

The next scheduled City Council meeting on July 14 will be held virtually due to an air conditioning issue at Loucks Auditorium in Salem Public Library.

Council meetings have been moved to Loucks since the Salem Civic Center is undergoing a seismic retrofit project to make the building more resilient from earthquakes.

Air conditioning problems at Loucks, where the meeting was scheduled to be held, prompted the change. The decision was made for the health and safety of the Salem community with forecasted temperatures next Monday expected to be in the upper 80s to 90s.

The meeting can be viewed in real time on the City of Salem YouTube channel. Comcast Cable subscribers can watch on CC:Media Channel 21.

The public can submit comments on agenda items by 5 p.m. July 14 at cityrecorder@cityofsalem.net

Public testimony may be provided during the meeting via Zoom. Remote attendees must pre-register between 8 a.m. and 3 p.m. on July 14 using this link: https://www.cityofsalem.net/comment-at-council
