Contacting City Council
City Council needs and wants the community's feedback and insight to discover ways to improve the City of Minot.
There are many ways residents can contact their elected leaders. Listed below are your members of City Council and links to contact each or you can use our Council Comment Portal.
IMPORTANT DISCLAIMER
Keep in mind that all City Council communications including, but not limited to, emails, text messages, and social media posts may be subject to the North Dakota Open Records and Meetings laws. If a quorum (4 members of the City Council) discusses public business outside of a noticed meeting, even if 4 or more members responds to your email individually with their position on public business, that is an open meetings violation. With that, please be advised that if you send an email to the entire City Council, the entire City Council cannot respond to you outside of a public meeting.
If your inquiry or message requires an immediate response – we encourage you to contact Harold Stewart, City Manager.
If you have an issue you would like to discuss with the full City Council, please come and participate in our City Council meetings. Each regular City Council meeting has a designated time for “Public Appearances” and we want to hear from you. Please refer to the City’s Meeting Calendar to learn more about upcoming City Council meetings.
