City Council Meeting
Calendar Date:
City Council Meeting Amended Public Hearing Processes due to COVID-19

In particular, the executive order gave local governments the authority to not provide a physical space for the public to attend meetings or hearings, provided a virtual attendance mechanism is in place.
Given the recent executive orders, citizens will not be able to attend City meetings in person. Interested citizens who would like to view and listen to public meetings may do so via live broadcast HERE.
During this time, City Council meetings will not allow for verbal public comments on any item other than a mandatory public meeting, but citizens are still encouraged to express their views to the City Council. Those interested may do so by submitting written communications in one of the following ways:
- Submit written comments via email to the City Recorder's Office HERE.
- Mail written comments to Florence City Hall, Attn: City Council, 250 Hwy 101, Florence, OR 97439
