PUBLIC HEARING
Chairman Dowd
So this evening we have a public hearing on the budget and anything with regard to the proposed Mayor’s
budget. When we ask for questions or comments, you can come up to the microphone here on my right.
You have three minutes. When there’s 30 seconds left, | will notify you. If it’s a question, I'll ask the Mayor
who could answer it best. If it’s himself, or Mr. Griffin, or one of the department heads, they are here.
You're allowed to ask one question at a time under the division we’re covering. After everyone has had an
opportunity to ask a question on that division, you could come up again if you had another question. You
still have the 3 minute timing. You cannot yield any time to another speaker. Each person has only 3
minutes.
