In November 2018, New York City voters approved Charter revisions that established the New York City Civic Engagement Commission (Chapter 76 of the New York City Charter). The Commission's purpose is to enhance civic participation through a variety of initiatives, including participatory budgeting, expanded poll site interpretation and assistance to community boards.

For more information about the Commission please visit the Commission's website.

The meeting is open to the public. The NYCCEC will hold a public comment period at the end of its meeting for comments related to the mission and activities of the Commission. Please note that public comment is limited to three minutes. This time is intended for comment and is not designated for questions and answers. To allow for comment in an orderly fashion, please sign up by emailing your name and affiliation to info@civicengagement.nyc.gov by 5pm, Monday, August 24th.

Please make any such requests or other accessibility requests no later than 10 am, Thursday, August 19th, 2021 by emailing info@civicengagement.nyc.gov or calling 646-763-2189.
