Attend a Board or Commission Meeting
During the declared local public health emergency, Minneapolis has transitioned to an electronic format for its public meetings and hearings, authorized under Minn. Stat. Section 13D.021, to minimize the risk of exposure to or potential spread of COVID-19.
Some meetings that are normally not broadcast can be viewed online and on cable TV:
- Watch on Comcast Channel 14 or 799
- Watch on CenturyLink Channel 8001 or 8501
- Watch live online at City Council TV
- Also watch live and archived meeting video on the City’s YouTube Channel
Some meetings are being held via Microsoft Teams with a call-in option for the public. Check the meeting calendar for phone number and Conference ID. The Conference ID changes for each meeting.
