Public Invited to Open Forum with City Council
The Longmont City Council invites the community to participate in an open forum with Council Members on Tuesday, January 12, 2010 at 7 p.m. in the City Council Chambers located at 350 Kimbark St. This is an opportunity for Longmont residents to engage in a positive, informal dialogue with members of the City Council about any current issues or future opportunities they see for Longmont. The “open forum” format differs from the typical City Council Meeting in that residents can not only offer their opinions, but can also ask questions and converse with Council Members. City Staff also will be on hand. For more information contact City Council Members at: www.ci.longmont.co.us/city_council/members/index.htm or the City Manager’s Office at 303-651-8601.
