§ 2-210. Informal public comments.  


Latest version.
  • The clerk shall include on the agenda of each regular meeting at least fifteen (15) minutes for comments or questions from the public in attendance. Citizens wishing to address the board will register on a sign-up sheet available with the clerk. The sign-up sheet will be available thirty (30) minutes before the start of the meeting; no one will be allowed to have his/her name placed on the list by telephone request to staff. Comments will be limited to three (3) minutes. The chairman will recognize individuals in the order in which they signed up and then may recognize others, subject to available time. When the time set aside for informal public comment has expired, the chairman will recognize further speakers only upon motion duly made and adopted. If the time period expires before all persons who have signed up get to speak, those names will be carried over to the next public comment period.
