The Weaverville Town Council unveiled a new format to its meetings Monday (Feb. 20). The council is now allowing comments before certain topics. Mayor Al Root said the format is a trial-run, and the council will be evaluating its effectiveness over the next few months.
Several residents have asked council recently about allowing comments before a particular vote is taken. The previous format allowed for comments only in the beginning. The new format allowed for public comment following the council's discussion on each of the four primary agenda items in Monday's meeting. Public comments are still limited to three minutes, and those wishing to speak on topics outside of the agenda may still speak at the beginning of the meeting.
