In light of the COVID-19 health pandemic, members of the City Council will participate  
in City Council meetings by telephone or other electronic means.

Council Meeting Information  
The City Council is paperless which saves the environment and reduces expenses.  
The agendas and Council files are all available on the Web (see below). Council  
members use mobile devices to review the files during the meeting. Using a mobile  
device greatly reduces costs since most agendas, including the documents attached  
to files, are over 1000 pages when printed.  
Web  
Meetings are available on the Council's website. Email notification and web feeds  
(RSS) of newly released minutes, agendas, and meetings are available by subscription.  
Visit www.stpaul.gov/council for meeting videos and updated copies of the agendas,  
minutes, and supporting documents.
