• Public Comment for City Council Meeting
• Public Comment for Planning Commission Meeting

Public Comment submissions are intended for specific City Council or Planning Commission meetings. Comments may be read at the meeting either by the submitter or by City staff. All submissions must be received by 1:00 pm on the day of the meeting. Pursuant to ORS 192.420, a submission is considered a public record; disclosure may be required upon request.

The Public Comments period is designated for topics not already included on the agenda and is intended for the public to share ideas and concerns; it is not intended for an interactive discussion with Council. There may be opportunities for public comments during specific agenda items; members of the public are requested to confine their remarks to questions or issues under discussion during this time. During ANY designated comment period, individuals shall not engage in personal attacks, shall not impugn the motives of any speaker, and shall at all times, while in session conduct themselves in an appropriate manner. No person shall make personal, impertinent, slanderous or unauthorized remarks or become boisterous while addressing the Council.

Public comments can also be submitted by email to publiccomment@coosbayor.gov or brought to the City Manager's Office at Coos Bay City Hall, 500 Central Avenue, during regular business hours.
