Specifically City Council approved the Request to Appear Before the City Council form as well as the “Guidelines if you wish to speak at a City Council meeting”.
The current Guidelines require the speaker to begin their statement with their name and address. In addition, the form requests the speaker list both the speaker’s name and address.
