Individuals who wish to participate during the portion of the meeting designated for public comment shall sign up with the presiding officer or designee before the meeting begins as specified in the Board’s procedures on public comment and shall indicate the agenda item or topic, if applicable, on which they wish to address the Board. Except as permitted by Board policy BED(Local) and the Board’s procedures on public comment, an individual’s comments to the Board shall not exceed three minutes per meeting. When necessary for effective meeting management or to accommodate large numbers of individuals wishing to address the Board, the presiding officer may adjust public comment procedures in accordance with BED(Local), including establishing an overall time limit for public comment and adjusting the time allotted to each speaker.
