Tuesday’s Kerrville City Council meeting has a change in venue

Due to COVID-19 quarantine issues of some staff at the Kathleen C. Cailloux City Center for the Performing Arts, the scheduled Tuesday, Jan. 12 meeting of the Kerrville City Council is being moved to City Hall. The meeting will be restricted to city staff only. All citizens, including agenda item presenters, are encouraged to view the meeting on the city’s website at https://kerrvilletx.gov/1328/Kerrville-City-Channel, or on the city’s Spectrum broadcast Channel 2.

Despite the necessity to restrict public access to the meeting in the interest of public health, citizens and visitors are welcome to participate in the Jan. 12 meeting as outlined below:

INSTRUCTIONS FOR CALLERS: Dial the toll-free number: (800) 832-5611. When your call is answered you will hear “Welcome to Zoom, enter your Meeting ID followed by pound.” Enter in the Meeting ID below, followed by the pound sign (#). The meeting ID is 949 2808 0395# and the webinar passcode ID is 700755.

If the moderator has not started the meeting, callers will hear “The meeting has not started yet, please hold or call back later.” If citizens choose to call back, do so before 5:45 p.m. Once you have called into the meeting, your microphone will be placed on mute and your call will be placed in the call queue. At this point, you will hear silence on the phone. Do not hang up, as the moderator will unmute your microphone as he/she is going down the list. Once the meeting has begun, you will be able to listen in to the proceedings despite your microphone being muted.

The moderator will be accepting calls beginning at 5 p.m., and all calls must be placed before 5:45 p.m. in order to allow the needed time to be loaded and queued. Calls made after this time will not be answered.

Comments may also be mailed to City Secretary Shelley McElhannon at shelley.mcelhannon@kerrvilletx.gov.

Speakers are limited to four minutes. For more information, contact the city secretary’s office at (830) 258-1118.

The City of Kerrville hopes to return to the Cailloux Center for the next city council meeting which is scheduled for Jan. 26.
