Temporary Change to Zoom Platform

Zoom, the remote meeting platform used by the City of Salem for public meetings, has temporarily disabled telephone options for attending webinars, the format used by the City for most meetings, in order to conduct an update to the platform. The company anticipates re-enabling them shortly. In the meantime, attendees can connect to the audio of a live webinar meeting using Zoom’s desktop client, web client, or mobile app. Recordings of public meetings held via Zoom are also available for those unable to attend a meeting live.

Members of the public attending this meeting virtually will be allowed to make comments if they wish to do so, during the portion of the meeting designated for public comment. If you would like to make a comment, please use the ‘Raise Hand’ feature.  The Chair of the Authority, with the assistance of City Staff, will provide all participants who have raised their hands an opportunity to speak.

Additional, specific information and general guidelines for remote participation by members of the public and/or parties with a right and/or requirement to attend this meeting can be found on the City of Salem website, at Zoom Participation Tool FAQ.

Once again, thank you for your patience and understanding as we navigate this challenging situation for our community and the world.
