SPECIAL MEETING
OF THE CITY COUNCIL
CORONAVIRUS (COVID-19) ADVISORY
Due to the state and local State of Emergency resulting from the threat of Novel Coronavirus (COVID-19),
Governor Newsom has issued Executive Order N-29-20 in which Section 3 supersedes Paragraph 11 of
Executive Order N-25-20 (issued on March 12, 2020) addressing Brown Act regulations. This new order states
that the City does not need to make a physical location available for members of the public to observe a public
meeting and offer public comment. The Order allows the City to hold City Council/Board meetings via
teleconferencing and allows for members of the public to observe and address the meeting telephonically or
electronically.
To follow the new Order issued by the Governor, the Special City Council meeting scheduled for
Monday, April 27, 2020 at 6:30 p.m. will be closed to the public. Members of the public may submit Public
Comments by 5:30 p.m. electronically only by emailing PublicComment@azusaca.gov. Emailed public
