Marietta residents and interested parties take note: the City Council has scheduled a series of sessions for the second week of February. According to the city's announcement published yesterday, the council will convene on Monday, February 9, at 5:15 PM for an agenda work session, with a follow-up agenda review session set on Wednesday, February 11 at 6:00 PM. The Wednesday session is slated to proceed into the council's regular meeting at 7:00 PM. All events will be held in the City Council chamber located at 205 Lawrence Street, on the lobby level of City Hall.
Engagement from the community plays a critical part in the democratic process, and the City Council has made arrangements to accommodate both physical and virtual attendance. The public is encouraged to join either in person or via the internet. The agendas for these meetings are meant to be posted online prior to the respective dates. Anyone looking to dive into the specifics can find them on the City’s website at mariettaga.gov. For additional details, the city has provided the contact number 770-794-5509. Following the formalities of both meetings, an informal discussion is also scheduled to take place immediately in the council chamber, providing a chance for more personal and direct dialogue with council members.
In an effort to increase transparency and reach, the sessions will also be broadcast live, and subsequently archived for future viewing directly on the city's website. This is an opportunity for those who cannot make it in person to stay informed and involved in the civic proceedings that affect their daily lives.
