Several land-use items are also on the agenda. Council members and Mayor Heidi Franco have debated ideas like limiting comments to emails and one designated comment period, as well as allowing the public up to 10 minutes to speak before any council vote. The council will also decide new rules for public comment in meetings. Council agreed to hang flags for that week, however no flag designs or details were determined. The council decided to plan the week of kindness with partial, but not exclusive, emphasis on the LGBTQ+ community. They also asked the city to hang gay pride flags on Main Street like it did in 20. The youth shared emotional stories of being harassed and marginalized in the community.
First on the Heber City Council agenda is to revisit the plan to hold community service and awareness events the first week of June.Ī group of LGBTQ+ youth presented the idea to the council on April 19.
