Council
City Council meets on the 1st and 3rd Mondays of every month at 7:00 P.M at the city building.
Public Bodies (including city council) in Ohio are governed by the Ohio Revised Code, more specifically a set of laws called “Sunshine Laws” and the “Ohio Open Meeting Act.”
All meetings of any public body are declared to be public meetings open to the public at all times. The Open Meetings Act does not provide, or prohibit, attendees the right to be heard at meetings, and a public body may place limitations on the time, place, and manner of access to its meetings, as long as the restrictions are content neutral and narrowly tailored to serve a significant governmental interest. Further, a disruptive person waives his or her right to attend meetings, and the body may remove that person from the meeting.
Delphos City Council passed a resolution in 2012 to clarify its own rules on the matter. To be on the agenda of a regularly scheduled council meeting, you must notify the city secretary or council president no later than 12:00 p.m. on the Friday prior to the meeting.
