ZOOM - Support and Tips on using ZOOM Teleconferencing to Attend Monroe County Public Meetings
Monroe County has partnered with Zoom in order to provide continuity of Government services for the citizens of Monroe County. This platform will allow Monroe County to provide transparency to our Citizens during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Zoom is easy to use, runs well on most computers, and does not require a program to be installed on your machine. Additionally, parties without a computer can join in the meetings via audio only by dialing into the access phone numbers with any touch-tone telephone.
To maintain order during the meeting, guests will have their audio channel muted by the Monroe County Host. If you wish to participate in public comment during comment periods, please signal your intent by either "raising your hand" virtually or sending a private chat to the Host.
-To "raise your hand" virtually, click on the PARTICIPANTS button on the lower portion of the Zoom conference window. This will pop out a list of everyone in the conference room. At the bottom of this list, is a "Raise Hand" button. By clicking on this, a blue raised hand icon will appear on your stream for the Host and others to see. You will be placed in a queue and called upon at the appropriate time.
If you find yourself in need of technical support, please feel free to call our Helpdesk at 812-349-2522 for assistance or email helpdesk@co.monroe.in.us.
