Don't know what to say? Here's a starting point:

My name is [YOUR NAME], and I’m a resident of Royal Oak. I want to express my support for the Proposed Master Plan. This comprehensive plan aligns with my future vision of Royal Oak: a sustainable city, with plentiful housing, easy to traverse even without a car.

I’m particularly pleased with the plan's focus on increasing types of housing available to property owners and reducing parking requirements: actions like these are important to keep housing affordable enough that folks who work in Royal Oak can live in Royal Oak.

Additionally, this plan maps actions the city can take to reduce our environmental impact which I whole-heartedly support, as I believe reducing climate change should be a high priority for the city. Finally, I appreciate the plan’s emphasis on improving non-motorized infrastructure. When we make it easier to travel without a car, we can reduce congestion, lower emissions, and make our city more accessible.

I believe this Proposed Master Plan could have a lasting positive impact on our community and look forward to its approval and then successful implementation. Thank you for your time tonight.
