PUBLIC FORUM – Future Meeting Topics
The public are invited to sign up in advance of the meeting at www.meridiancity.org/forum to
address elected officials regarding topics of general interest or concern of public matters.
Comments specific to active land use/development applications are not permitted during this
time. By law, no decisions can be made on topics presented at Public Forum. However, City
Council may request the topic be added to a future meeting agenda for further discussion or
action. The Mayor may also direct staff to provide followup assistance regarding the matter.
ACTION ITEMS
Public Hearing process: Land use development applications begin with presentation of the
project and analysis of the application by Planning Staff. The applicant is then allowed up to 15
minutes to present their project. Members of the public are then allowed up to 3 minutes each
to address City Council regarding the application. Citizens acting as a representative of a
Homeowner’s Association may be allowed up to 10 minutes to speak on behalf of represented
homeowners who have consented to yielding their time. After all public testimony, the applicant
is allowed up to 10 minutes to respond to questions and comments. City Council members may
ask questions throughout the public hearing process. The public hearing is then closed, and no
further public comment is heard. City Council may move to continue the application to a future
meeting or approve or deny the application. The Mayor is not a member of the City Council and
pursuant to Idaho Code does not vote on public hearing items unless to break a tie vote.
