PUBLIC INVOLVEMENT The City Council actively welcomes members of the public and the press to attend its meetings and holds as many of its meetings as possible in public. Provision is also made on the agendas for public questions to committees and details of how questions can be raised can be found on the website and/or on agendas for the meetings.
The closing date for receipt of public questions and deputations for the next meeting is 12 noon on the fourth working day before the meeting.
WEBCASTING NOTICE This meeting may be filmed for live or subsequent broadcast via the Council’s website. At the start of the meeting the Chair will confirm if all or part of the meeting is being filmed. You should be aware that the Council is a Data Controller under the Data Protection Act 1998. Data collected during this web cast will be retained in accordance with the Council’s published policy.
Therefore, by entering the meeting room and using the seats in the chamber you are deemed to be consenting to being filmed and to the possible use of those images and sound recordings for the purpose of web casting and/or Member training. If members of the public do not wish to have their image captured, they should sit in the public gallery area.
If you have any queries regarding this, please contact the Head of Democratic Services or the designated Democratic Services Officer listed on the agenda.
ACCESS NOTICE The Public Gallery is situated on the first floor of the Town Hall and is limited in size but does have 2 spaces designated for wheelchair users. There is an accessible lift to the first floor and ramped access to the public gallery. However, the lift cannot be used as part of a manged evacuation and therefore anyone unable to use the stairs or transfer to an evac chair should not use the public gallery but seek assistance from reception.
We have made a number of adjustments to make the venue as accessible as possible and the seated spaces available in the public gallery can be used by disabled people who are not wheelchair users.
Infra-red hearing aids are available for use during the meeting. If you require any further information or assistance, please contact the receptionist on arrival.
If you wish to attend a meeting but are unable to use stairs please contact the Democratic Services Team (Tel: 01273 291066 or Email: democratic.services@brighton-hove.gov.uk) in advance of the meeting to discuss your access requirements. We can then work with you to enable your attendance and also to ensure your safe evacuation from the building in the event of an emergency.
If the public gallery is full, Room G87 on the ground floor can be used as an inclusive space with video conferencing facilities and AV links to the council chamber, level access, and nearby WC facilities, including wheelchair accessible provision. From this room you can watch the meeting and take part in proceedings, for example if you have submitted a public question.
FIRE / EMERGENCY EVACUATION PROCEDURE If the fire alarm sounds continuously, or if you are instructed to do so, you must leave the building by the nearest available exit. You will be directed to the nearest exit by council staff. It is vital that you follow their instructions: · You should proceed calmly; do not run and do not use the lifts; · Do not stop to collect personal belongings; · Once you are outside, please do not wait immediately next to the building, but move some distance away and await further instructions; and · Do not re-enter the building until told that it is safe to do so.
