Tune in Tuesday: Live Coverage of Rohnert Park City Council Meeting

Make sure to check Rohnert Park Patch Tuesday starting at 5 p.m. — we'll be launching our new coverage of the City Council meetings, aiming to engage residents to participate in the workings of local government.

For the first time, we'll using Cover It Live, a cool widget that allows us to post in real time what's happening. The idea is, if you're logged on to Patch, you can simply watch what's taking place at the meeting — ask your questions, post comments, vote in a poll or upload a photo of your own if you're in the audience.

The city has free WiFi, simply log on to Rohnert Park's network. The username is Rohnert and the password is Park (case sensitive).

Tomorrow looks like a lively meeing — on the agenda is a presentation from Tim Danisi, who recently wrote about the history of Rohnert Park. Sgt. Jason Krauss is presenting a mid-year traffic analysis on dangerous spots here and what the Department of Public Safety is doing to reduce traffic-related injuries.

The City Council will also take up the issue of whether or not to support a development agreement with Sonoma Mountain Village.

We'll be taking questions, posting public comments and answering your questions — so join in the conversation!

And if you miss the meeting, you'll be able to check Patch anytime to find out what happened, minute by minute.
