For the December 8 meeting, NCD requests comments from the public regarding ideas for the Council’s Fiscal Year 2024 policy project proposals, which will be discussed and voted on at its February Council meeting.

Emailed public comment submissions will be reviewed during the meeting and delivered to members of the Council at its conclusion. You can also present public comment during the session by clicking the “Hand Raise” button in Zoom and waiting to be called on. If you plan to present over Zoom, please provide advance notice. To provide comments or notice to present public comment, please send an email to PublicComment@ncd.gov with the subject line “Public Comment” and your name, organization, state, and topic of comment included in the body of your email.  Submission should be received no later than December 7, 5 p.m. EST to ensure inclusion.
