0169.1 PUBLIC PARTICIPATION AT BOARD MEETINGS.
The Board recognizes the value to school governance of public comment on educational issues and the importance of allowing members of the public to express themselves on school matters of community interest. In order to permit the fair and orderly expression of such comment, the Board shall provide a period for public participation at those public meetings of the Board during which action may be taken and provide rules to govern such participation in Board meetings. The Chair of each Board meeting at which public participation is permitted shall administer the rules of the Board for its conduct.
The Chair shall be guided by the following policies:
(1) Time Limit.-Public discussion, not to exceed one (1) hour, may be scheduled or unscheduled. The Board may, from time to time, waive certain procedural requirements to allow greater public participation in Board meetings. Any waiver, regardless of how frequently made, shall be narrowly construed and not cited or used by other parties seeking to invalidate such procedures or otherwise avoid their impact. Attendees shall register their intention to participate in the public portion of the meeting with the Board clerk.
(2) Scheduled Appearances. In scheduled appearances, any person or group shall be allowed
fifteen (15) minutes for the purpose, provided such appearance has been placed on the agenda.
Hearing procedures for formal argument and presentation are governed by Bylaw 0169.1.
(3) Unscheduled Appearances. In unscheduled appearances, any person or group who has not made previous arrangements to be placed on the agenda may be heard for not more than five (5) minutes for an individual or group, provided there is time remaining in the public discussion.
(4) Remarks Directed to the Board. When several members of the public or several
members of a group share similar opinions on the same issues, a representative, rather than all the
members, should address the Board. Persons addressing the Board shall speak into a microphone
and direct their remarks to the Board. Staff members shall not be expected to answer questions
from the audience unless called upon by the Chair or the Superintendent.
(5) Board Action. Board action will not be taken on requests made during unscheduled
appearances during the public discussion period until a later meeting unless the Board declares the matter to be an emergency.
