Sign up to speak at a Board Meeting
 

A portion of each meeting is set aside for public participation. Public participation is intended to allow individual members of the public to address the Board on issues of public concern, and not intended as a forum for extended conversation or two-way dialog with the Board or District officials. All speakers will be allotted up to three minutes for comment unless an exception applies.

Individuals wishing to comment must sign up in advance of the Regular Meeting date by completing the Online Speaking Request Form (below). The sign-up period closes at 4:00 p.m. five (5) calendar days prior to the day of the next Regular Board Meeting.
