BETHLEHEM CITY COUNCIL MEETINGS ARE CURRENTLY OPEN TO THE PUBLIC AND YOU MAY ATTEND COUNCIL MEETINGS IN PERSON. In-person attendance policies may change from time to time depending on COVID considerations. All Bethlehem City Council meetings take place in the Town Hall Rotunda Building at 10 East Church Street, Bethlehem, PA 18018 and are generally held on the first and third Tuesday of each month, generally starting at 7:00 PM. Depending on holidays and election days, some meetings occur on Wednesdays or earlier in the night. Please check dates and times for individual meetings before attending.
PUBLIC COMMENT INSTRUCTIONS. Based on current COVID cases in the Lehigh Valley, Bethlehem City Council currently accepts public comment over the phone during the public comment period. This policy may change from time to time depending on community COVID case numbers. To sign up to comment by phone, email the City Clerk’s office at cityclerk@bethlehem-pa.gov or call (610) 865-7130 by 2:00 PM on the meeting date. You may also call when the Council President announces they will take phone comments.
ORDER OF SPEAKING: Speakers physically present in Town Hall will have the first opportunity to provide public comment followed by signed-up phone commenters, and finally, phone commenters that did not sign up ahead of the meeting.  If you are signed up to speak by phone, the Council President will call you from (610) 997-7963. After signed-up speakers comment, the President will ask whether anyone else would like to call into the meeting. At that point, if you want to comment, you may call the comment line at (610) 997-7963.
PUBLIC COMMENT NOTES: Calls will only be accepted during the public comment period of City Council meetings. If you call and the line is busy, call back when the current speaker is finished. Please turn off all speakers, computer speakers, televisions, and radios. State your name and address at start of the call. A five (5) minute time limit will apply to all comments. City authorities, boards, and commissions have different public comment policies and the instructions above do not apply to any other governing body. If you have any questions on public comment procedures, please call or email the City Clerk’s office at cityclerk@bethlehem-pa.gov  or call (610) 865-7130.
