Community Participation

The Board of Commissioners welcomes public comments during all meetings. During this time, the Board President will open the floor and acknowledge those desiring to speak and the individual will be required to provide their name prior to speaking.  Early arrival is encouraged if commenting, a form is required to be filled out upon arrival and will stop being accessible at the start of the meeting. Public comment is encouraged and appreciated. Apart from public hearings, this is the only opportunity for the public to address the Board on agenda items. To accomplish all business on the agenda and be respectful of everyone’s time, Board members will not be able to engage in dialogue with individual members of the audience and no immediate action will be taken on any public comment issue.

1. Public comments sign in form must be completed before speaking.
2. Public comment is limited to three minutes per speaker. As a reminder, there are other channels to connect, such as our community forums, personal discussions, “connect with the community,” a form on your website, surveys, etc.
3. No speaker may convey or donate his or her time to another speaker.
4. Comments shall always be courteous and respectful.
5. No person may use public comment for the purpose of a campaign or advertisement.
