Announcement to return to in person meetings. AB 361, legislative bodies subject to the Brown Act have been able to hold virtual meetings without noticing the locations of the members as long as certain findings were made and the COVID-19 state of emergency was still in effect. State of emergency is scheduled to end on February 28, 2023. As such, legislative bodies subject to the Brown Act will no longer have authority to hold fully remote meetings without meeting all of the access and notice requirements of the Brown Act.

 In practice, this means that, as of March 1, all such bodies will need to meet in person in most situations.

Every agenda for a regular meeting shall provide an opportunity for members of the public to directly address the Board on any item under the jurisdiction of the Board for a total of 3 minutes.

With respect to any item which is already on the agenda, or in connection with any item which the Board will consider the public will be given the opportunity to comment before or during the Board’s consideration of the item.

Where a member of the public raises an issue which has not yet come before the Board, the item may be briefly discussed but no action may be taken at that meeting. The purpose of the discussion is to permit a member of the public to raise an issue or problem with the Board or to permit the Board to provide information to the public, provide direction to its staff, or schedule the matter for a future meeting.

*The Brown Act specifically authorizes the Board to adopt regulations to assist in processing comments from the public. The Board may establish procedures for public comment as well as specifying reasonable time limitations on particular topics or individual speakers.

So long as the Board acts fairly with respect to the interest of the public and competing factions, it has great discretion in regulating the time and manner, as distinguished from the content, of testimony by interested members of the public.
