How Do I Make a Deputation?
- Speak from experience, but it’s helpful to include research from other jurisdictions as well!
- You'll only have 3 minutes, so practice and time yourself so you get an opportunity to make all of the points you want to.
- Councillors may ask you questions, so prepare for that as well.
- Login to Webex at the beginning of the meeting.
- Double-check your sound/audio and try to troubleshoot in advance.
- If you have headphones with a microphone, use them.
- If there are a lot of speakers, you may only get 2-3 minutes.
- Unless you’re first, use the bathroom right away. They’ll call your name three times before moving on.
