How to Participate in the City Council or Great Park Meeting

In an effort to protect public health and prevent the spread of COVID-19 (coronavirus), the City of Irvine encourages the public to view City Council meetings on television or online instead of attending in person. The meeting is broadcast live on ICTV, Cox Communications Local Access Channel 30 and AT&T U-Verse Channel 99, and live streamed online at cityofirvine.org/ictv and on YouTube at youtube.com/ictv30. Members of the public who wish to comment on matters before the Council, in lieu of doing so in person, may submit comments via “e-comment,” which will be provided to the City Council as part of the City Council meeting record and will be uploaded to the City’s website.

In addition to viewing City Council Meetings via the live and on-demand ICTV streaming service, the City is pleased to announce that City Council meetings will be available through Zoom web-conferencing in an effort to enhance community engagement, and will include a dial in conference call line.
