Board of Alders legal notices include a line like, "If you wish to present testimony at the meeting, you must register in advance at https://bit.ly/[xyz] or by calling (203) 946‑6483 or emailing publictestimony@newhavenct.gov before 2:00 pm on the day of the meeting." However, the link is just a Zoom call that is not active until the meeting actually starts (so, not actually a way to submit or register for public comment). I sent an e-mail six days ago to the e-mail address listed and have yet to receive a response. It's also not at all clear whether the testimony itself must be submitted in advance, or if citizens are just meant to give their names to get on a list to testify. Please do better at informing the public about how to participate.
