Updated Public Participation Rules: 

Here are a few updates on new public participation rules (Rule 4) that were adopted by the Board of Supervisors:
  • Public Comments Must Pertain to Agenda Items: Under the rules, all public comments must pertain to the agenda items being discussed by the Board. This ensures the public comment period is focused on providing input on the specific matters before the Board.
  • Updates to Non-Agenda Public Comment:
    • Speaker slips for non-agenda public comments can now be submitted up until the non-agenda public comment period begins, aligning with the deadline for discussion items.
    • You can choose to make non-agenda public comments during either the General Legislative Session or the Land Use Legislative Session, but only once per meeting.
    • The Chairperson may reduce speaking time for non-agenda public comments, if necessary, to keep the meeting on schedule.
  • Deadline to Submit Presentations: The rules clarify that the public must submit any presentations or videos they want to show during their comments by a specified deadline, generally the Friday before the meeting. This allows staff time to set up the equipment during the speaker's allotted time.
  • Disruptive Behavior: As a reminder, the Board wishes to ensure that business is conducted in an orderly fashion, to encourage public input at its meetings, and to ensure that all have an equal opportunity to observe and participate in the proceedings. Accordingly, the following shall govern the conduct of the meeting:
    • All remarks and questions by a speaker shall be addressed to the Board and not to County staff.
    • Each person who addresses the Board of Supervisors shall not use loud, shouting, threatening, impertinent, slanderous, profane, or abusive language to any member of the Board, staff, or the general public. The Chairperson may, at the Chairperson’s option, state to the person who has used such language that such language is unwanted, unwelcome, inappropriate, and interferes with the ability of those present to listen and understand. The speaker’s time will be held during the Chairperson’s statement and the speaker will receive their full allotment of time, unless the speaker is sanctioned under Rule 4(h) in a manner that results in the speaker not receiving their full allotment of time.
    • No person shall disrupt, disturb, or otherwise impede the orderly conduct of the Board meeting. Any language or conduct that disrupts, disturbs, or otherwise impedes the orderly conduct of the Board meeting is prohibited, and the Chairperson may impose sanctions for a violation under Rule 4(h).
    • Nothing herein shall preclude a member of the public from commenting on, questioning, or criticizing the policies, procedures, programs, or services of the County, the acts or omissions of the Board, or the positions, statements, votes, actions, or omissions of members of the Board.
    • Additional information about conduct and sanctions is described further in Rule 4.
These changes are intended to make the public participation process clearer and more consistent, while also providing the Board Chairperson some flexibility to manage the meetings in an orderly manner.
