Audience participation at a Board meeting is limited to the portion
of the meeting designated to receive public comment in accordance
with this policy. At all other times during a Board meeting, the
audience shall not enter into discussion or debate on matters being
considered by the Board, unless requested by the presiding officer.

At all other Board meetings, public comment shall be limited to
items on the agenda posted with notice of the meeting.

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 on which they wish to address the Board.
Public comment shall occur at the beginning of the meeting.
Except as permitted by this policy and the Board’s procedures on
public comment, an individual’s comments to the Board shall not
exceed two(2) minutes per meeting.

Specific factual information or recitation of existing policy may be
furnished in response to inquiries, but the Board shall not deliberate
or decide regarding any subject that is not included on the
agenda posted with notice of the meeting.

It is recommended that the Board adopt a resolution, as required in DEA (LOCAL), to compensate employees for the closure due to hazardous road conditions January 26th-January 29th.  The state may offer waiver days for these emergency closings at a later date, but if not, the district has enough minutes to absorb the lost days.
