Before we check out next week’s agenda, a quick reminder:

and also…

The next meeting of the Prairie Village City Council will be via Zoom and Facebook Live. You do NOT have to have an FB account to view the meeting. You will be able to view it HERE when the time comes.

If you would like to speak LIVE during the public participation portion of the meeting, please notify City Clerk Adam Geffert at cityclerk@pvkansas.com, and provide your name, address, and email address prior to 3 p.m. on the day of the meeting. The City will provide you with a link to join the meeting and will call on those who signed up to speak once public participation begins. Members of the public will not be able to participate in the meeting unless they sign up with the City Clerk ahead of time. Each individual that wishes to speak will be given 3 minutes. To submit a written comment to Council, please send your comments to councilmembers@pvkansas.com by the same deadline.

If you need special accommodations, similar to our in-person meetings, a resident always has two business days to request an ADA accommodation for our virtual meetings should they need it. So, as an example for the hearing-impaired, with notice, we could line up a sign language interpreter to be present during the live meeting via Zoom.

There will be a public hearing on the 2022 budget at this meeting.

To participate in the public hearing, residents can email their comments to City Clerk Adam Geffert at cityclerk@pvkansas.com. All comments must be received by 3:00 p.m. on Tuesday, September 7.
