We believe that providing access for citizens to communicate with the board is vital for a strong representative local government.

Members of the public can address the Building Board of Appeals in the following ways:

• Attend a meeting in person. Participants may complete a blue comment upon arrival at the meeting, or download a copy of comment card [PDF] and hand in at the meeting.
  
  
• Submit an online comment card at least 1 hour prior to the start of the meeting. If you want to speak at the meeting, you will need to indicate on the comment card that you would like to speak during the meeting, and you will need to call 888-788-0099 or 877-853-5247 (toll free) using meeting ID 825 0808 5605 and following the prompts, prior to the start of the meeting.  You will be able to listen to the meeting; and when the item you have indicated that you want to speak on is before the board, your line will be taken off mute and you will be given an opportunity to speak.

For any difficulty accessing this meeting, please call 480-644-2099.
