On Friday, the Port of Olympia released new guidelines for how the public can attend and post comments for remote commission meetings, which the port began practicing March 9 to minimize the spread of COVID-19.
Those wanting to provide public comment must sign up in advance or submit written comments by 9 a.m. on the day of the meeting at commissioncoordinator@portolympia.com.
Written input will be gathered and delivered to the commission before the meeting starts.
In order to speak at the meeting, individuals must sign up by 9 a.m. on meeting day at commissioncoordinator@portolympia.com and confirm if the comments will be provided via computer or phone. Comments are limited to a three-minute window.
