The public comment portion of the agenda is generally NOT a time for the Board to interact with the public or to respond to the comments made by any member of the public. It is a time to allow comments to be heard by the Board. If a member of the public wishes to make inflammatory comments regarding an employee of the District, the Board should request that such communication take place in Closed Session to protect the privacy rights of staff.
