Citizens are invited to speak during the time specified for Public Comment only. This is the time to voice opinions (not to ask questions) about specific agenda item(s) prior to any Board action. Speakers must complete this form and submit it electronically prior to 3:00 p.m. on the day of a regularly scheduled Board meeting, else it will be considered for the following Board meeting. If written testimony or a handout is submitted, presenters are asked to supply one (1) copy to the Board Secretary. 

Tips for addressing the Board: 

- Identify yourself before speaking.
- Limit comments to three minutes (comments will be timed, and a 30 second warning from the end will be issued). 
- Groups representing a consistent viewpoint are encouraged to select a single spokesperson.

By law, the Board is allowed to take action only on items on the agenda. For other matters, the Board will receive comments only at the beginning of the meeting, and may, at their discretion, refer the matter to District staff or table the issue for future discussion.
