Speaking at Board Meetings

At Regular Board Meetings, during the “Public Comment” period listed on the agenda, members of the public may address the Board on any agenda item or other topic within the subject matter jurisdiction of the Board. Alternatively, public comments regarding a specific agenda item will be permitted at the time of consideration by the Board.

At Special Board Meetings, comments will be limited to items contained on the special meeting agenda.

A person wishing to be heard by the Board shall first be recognized by the president. Speakers may complete a Public Comment Card (available on the table near the entrance) to assist the Board President in recognizing speakers and also provide the opportunity for follow-up communication if desired.

Comments are limited to 3 minutes each, with no more than 20 minutes allotted to any one item.

The Board shall take no action on any item not appearing on the posted agenda, except as authorized by law.  Without taking action, Board members or District staff members may briefly respond to statements made or questions posed by the public about items not appearing on the agenda.
