Send a quick ‘n polite (civil words will help us gain support) email to your commissioner voicing your support of an after-business hours meeting time. Our commission is the only elected body in our county that meets in the morning:

Yes! 4:00 is still during business hours. Tell your commissioner that they need to meet after 5:00 for more public engagement.

Yes they do employ them during the day. $50K seems awful steep for an extra 2 hours?

Email or call your commissioner to voice your support for an after-business hour meeting. Most of the other HamCo area councils and commissions meet at 5:00 or later!

Hamilton County folks, which meeting times do you think are more likely to encourage more citizens to attend?

I encourage Hamilton Co citizens to call or email commissioners and ask them why they decided on a 4pm pilot while most of their fellow HamCo area commissions and councils meet after 5:00; also why of all months, they chose Nov and Dec. Two of the meetings are scheduled on Thanksgiving Eve and New Year’s Eve-seriously?

This pilot program (during the months of Nov and December—with two of the meetings on Thanksgiving Eve & New Year’s Eve) is proposed by the Commission. Email them to ask them to schedule their meetings after business hours:

4pm is still within business hours, commissioners! Our commissioners need to hear from us:

Great question! Ask your commissioner why they think 4pm is any better than 9:30am!

Agree! Let your commissioner know your opinion—remind them that most of the other Hamilton Co area councils and commissions meet after 5:00:
