Citizens' participation is the time that the Board will hear public concerns or public comments from those who have properly signed up to address the Board. At regular Board meetings, the Board shall permit public comment, regardless of whether the topic is an item on the agenda posted with notice of the meeting (general public comment is limited to no more than 30 minutes per meeting). At all other Board meetings, public comment shall be limited to open session items on the agenda posted with notice of the meeting. Each speaker is reminded that, he/she is limited in his/her presentation to a maximum of three minutes (which can be further limited/reduced by the Presiding Officer) and that he/she should respect confidentiality concerns and refrain from attacking the personal character of any individual student, staff member, or Board member in addressing concerns or comments.
Pursuant to state law and Board Policy BE (Legal), the Board cannot consider or take action on concerns at this meeting unless they pertain to an item on the posted agenda for this meeting. Any deliberation or decision on an item that is not posted for consideration at this meeting shall be limited to a proposal to place the subject on the agenda of a future meeting.
