Public Forum
Guidelines
- Public Forum:
- is an opportunity for members of the public to share information with
the Board.
- is not a time for debate with or questions and answers from the Board.
- is a time for the Board to receive input.
- is not a time for Board response.
In short, during public forum the Board will LISTEN to
public comment, but not COMMENT on public comment.
- In order to later respond to
concerns expressed during public forum, the Board needs the
names and addresses of public forum speakers. Therefore, we
request that you sign up prior to the beginning of public
forum. Only individuals who have signed up prior to public
forum will be allowed to address the Board. The clipboard
is always at the front table.
- If a group would like to
speak to the Board, we request that a spokesperson be
selected and that this person indicates the group he/she is
representing on the sign-up sheet and in his/her comments.
- Public forum is a time to
discuss issues, not individuals. Other avenues exist
for individual personnel complaints.
- Public forum is limited to a
total of 30 minutes. Each speaker will have a total of 5
minutes to address the Board.
PLEASE COMPLETE THE REQUESTED INFORMATION ON THE SIGN-UP
SHEET IF YOU PLAN TO SPEAK TO THE BOARD DURING PUBLIC FORUM.
