The three-minute speaking limit and the 24-hour pre-registration requirement are designed to ensure orderly proceedings while giving a wide range of voices a chance to be heard. The geographic distribution of sessions aims to lower travel barriers and reach communities across Prince George’s County.
By providing multiple in-person opportunities alongside written comment and livestream options, county officials are emphasizing transparency and public participation as the budget moves toward adoption. Residents concerned about specific programs or services should prepare concise statements and register early to secure a speaking slot or submit detailed written feedback before the January 30 deadline.
