Request to Speak at a Council/Committee Meeting

City Hall is reopening to the public. Participation in Council and Committee meetings is available in person and remotely. Enhanced security processes to access the building, including a security screening and bag check, are in place. Please allow for ample time to complete these processes before your meeting start time. City Hall can be accessed through the South West and South East entrances only.

Those wishing to view the meeting, but not participate, can do so online at www.edmonton.ca/meetings.

If you are speaking on behalf of another person, the person will need to complete an Authorization to Speak on Someone's Behalf form (available on edmonton.ca/meetings in the City Clerk FAQs) and provide the signed form to the Office of the City Clerk in hard copy or electronic form to city.clerk@edmonton.ca.

This personal information is being collected under the authority of Section 33 (c) of the Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act and will be used in scheduling you as a speaker before City Council.

All City Council, Standing Committee, and Public Hearing meetings are recorded. Public participation in these meetings, including any verbal reports or presentations delivered during these meetings, are recorded and included in the official meeting record. All meeting recordings and corresponding documentation are available for viewing at www.edmonton.ca/meetings.

Please note: Members of the public have the right to request to speak to items, but Council does not generally hear from members of the public at City Council meetings (aside from Non-Statutory Public Hearings). The Members of Council consider public input in advance of City Council meetings either through correspondence or at meetings of Standing Committees of Council (Executive, Community and Public Services, Urban Planning, etc.). Council will make the decision whether to hear from registered speakers at the beginning of the Council meeting.  

If you have any questions about the collection of this information, please contact the Office of the City Clerk at 780-496-8178 or 1 Sir Winston Churchill Square, Edmonton, AB T5J 2R7.
