Residents wishing to sign up to speak at public input or provide comments for a public hearing may do so by completing the online form for public input and hearings. If residents do not want to speak in person, they may submit their comments in writing. The comments will be included in the meeting minutes but will not be read aloud during the meeting. Residents who would like to speak on the legislative request by Congruus LLC for a map amendment to the Chatham County Compact Community boundary map should sign up for public input.

Please note, that the livestreaming software does not show presentations on the screen for residents watching from home but instead shows the meeting chambers so that commissioners are seen and heard throughout the entire meeting. All presentations can be accessed from the agendas located at https://chathamnc.legistar.com/Calendar.aspx. Presentations are shown on screens in the chambers for residents participating in person.
