Open Forum:
This is an opportunity for members of the public to bring an item that is not on tonight's agenda but related to the governance of the City of
Otsego, to the attention of the City Council. In providing this limited public forum, the City of Otsego expects respectful participation. We
encourage all speakers to be courteous in their language and deportment, and to confine their remarks to those facts that are germane and
relevant to the question or matter under discussion. Please remember that this is a public business meeting, available for viewing on the internet
by members of the public, including children. Consistent with FCC rules, obscenity, and profane or indecent language will not be tolerated by the
presiding officer. Anyone wishing to address the Council should approach the podium to make your comments and identify yourself by your first
and last name and your address for the record. Please limit your comments to three (3) minutes. No discussion or action will be taken by the
Council on this matter. If requested by the Council, City staff will prepare a report for the Council regarding the matter and place it on the next
agenda.
Public Hearing Items:
The City Council wants to ensure that public comments are received at the proper time and place to be most effective. For some comments to be
legally considered by the City Council they must be presented at a properly noticed public hearing specifically related to a certain issue. This
includes comments related to zoning or subdivision applications, public improvement projects, assessments, code enforcement or other issues that
are by State law or City Code subject to a hearing process. You may be advised by the City Council and/or the City Attorney to present comments
related to the issues listed above at the appropriate forum to assure that your comments are given proper consideration.
Consent Agenda Items:
These items are considered to be routine and non-controversial by the City Council and will be approved by one motion. There will be no separate
discussion of these items unless a Council member requests, in which case the item will be removed from the consent for discussion later in the
agenda.
Information:
The City Council has been provided background information for agenda items in advance by staff and appointed commissions, com mittees, and
boards. Decisions are based on this information, as well as City policy, practices, input from constituents and a Council member's personal
judgment.
The next regular City Council Meeting will be held on Monday, October 12, 2026, 7:00 PM at Otsego Prairie Center.
