Remote Meetings

In response to the Municipal Center closing, we have created this page as a hub for information about remote meetings. How to join, how to watch, and other pertinent information. We will be using the Zoom meeting application to host folks remotely.

The link to join a specific meeting will be posted under the calendar entry for that specific meeting approximately (TBD) minutes before the meeting begins. Hyperlink to event calendar. Simply click the link when it is available to join the meeting. Be sure that you have installed the Zoom client beforehand as outlined in the FAQs below.
