New! Virtual public comment option for Public Hearings On September 8, 2021, the Town of Oro Valley discontinued Zoom meetings and returned to in-person public meetings, to include Town Council and all boards and commissions. For the most part, these inperson meetings operate and function as they did pre-COVID. Residents may either attend in person or they can view/listen to the meeting from home via livestream on the Town’s website. With the exception of Public Hearings, individuals who wish to publicly speak at a meeting must do so in-person by filling out a blue speaker card for a particular agenda item or for Call to the Audience. For agenda items listed as Public Hearings, there is now an option to speak publicly via Zoom if the speaker registers at least 24 hours in advance of the meeting by filling out a “virtual” speaker card. Once a speaker has registered online, they will be provided with additional instructions and a Zoom link on the day of the meeting. For a link to the virtual speaker card, and to watch and/or listen to the public meeting online, please click here or visit www.orovalleyaz.gov and click on the blue “Meetings and Agendas” button.
