The Southfield City Council has established the following Rules of Procedure for all speakers: 
•    Each speaker will have 3 minutes to address the council. 
•    Each speaker is responsible for his or her comments and the City of Southfield does not, by permitting such remarks, support, endorse or accept the content, thereof, as being true or accurate. 
•    No speaker may make personal or impertinent attacks upon any officer, employee, or City Councilmember or other Elected Official, that is unrelated to the manner in which they perform their duties. 
•    No person shall use abusive or threatening language toward any individual when addressing the City Council. 
Any person who violates this section shall be directed by the presiding officer to be orderly. If a person addressing the Council refuses when so directed, such person may be deemed by the presiding officer to have committed a “breach of the peace” by disrupting and impeding the orderly conduct of the public meeting of the City Council and may be ordered by the presiding officer to leave the meeting. If the person refuses to leave as directed, the presiding officer may direct any law enforcement officer who is present to escort the violator from the meeting. 
The Council may not provide responses to public comments during the meeting. If you have provided your contact information when you sign up for public communications, the City will provide a more formal response to you in the near future should it be needed. The Council may respond to comments at the end of communications if they are able to do so.
