City Hall to All
The City Hall to All pilot program is bringing public comment into neighborhoods.
Starting this month through January 2027, public comment meetings will be held on select Wednesdays at 6 p.m. Some meetings will continue to take place in City Council Chambers, starting at 6 p.m. Others will be held at rotating City locations in one of three participating City Council districts—bringing more opportunities for residents to share their comments closer to home.
The format and rules for City Hall to All will remain the same. Residents can register to speak at SASpeakUp.com or in person. Registration begins 45 minutes before the meeting and ends 15 minutes before the meeting starts.
This trial will help the City gather community feedback to decide next steps about City Hall to All.
