ATTENTION: TEMPORARY VIRTUAL PUBLIC MEETING AND COMMENT INSTRUCTIONS
IN LIGHT OF COVID-19 EMERGENCY
Due to the COVID-19 Pandemic Emergency, attendance at City Hall public meetings is limited in an
effort to comply with Federal and State public health and safety directives to keep our citizens, City
officials and employees safe. Under these conditions, the City of Cape Canaveral is committed to
providing alternative platforms for citizens to virtually attend scheduled public meetings and have an
opportunity to submit public comments in an efficient, orderly and safe manner. As a result, the City of
Cape Canaveral is temporarily utilizing virtual Communications Media Technology (CMT) for City Council
and other board meetings.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR VIRTUAL MEETING ATTENDANCE AND AGENDA ACCESS
The City of Cape Canaveral's temporary CMT meeting platform is GoToWebinar. Videoconferencing and
teleconferencing will be used to virtually connect the following meeting participants: City Staff, City
Attorney, City Consultants and Applicant(s), if any, for purposes of conducting public meetings. With
the expiration of the Governor's Executive Order No. 20-69, a physical quorum is again required as of
November 1, 2020. Provided a physical quorum is present, some City Council Members and/or Board
Members may participate virtually, in accordance with §120.54(5)(b)(2), F.S.
