Public Comment during the Human Rights and Equity Commission is intended to be welcoming and inclusive toward all speakers at public meetings, and to create an atmosphere of mutual care and respect. These meetings often provide an opportunity to provide public input and for community members to share thoughts and opinions with their elected leaders. However, they are not a time to level personal attacks or threats, disrupt the meeting, use obscene, vulgar, or discriminatory language, or discourage anyone else from participating. While community members may disagree with each other or the City on issues and give critical feedback, they are expected to do so respectfully, in accordance with these rules. This advisory body will hear five public comments for a duration of 2 minutes or a total of 10 minutes. If a speaker goes over the allotted amount of time they will be asked to pause or be muted to advance the meeting. (10 minutes) 

For additional information: Please contact the Equity and Inclusion Director // HREC Staff Liaison, Andrés Portela, He/Him/El, at aportela@bendoregon.gov or call 541-323-8563.
