• Public Comment Guidelines

     

    • There will be two public comment periods at each regular board meeting. The first public comment period will be limited to comments on agenda items only, and will conclude at the end of 30 minutes. The second public comment period will be open to comment on non-agenda items, and will conclude at the end of 15 minutes. The public comment portion of the meeting will not be livestreamed.

     

    • There will be a public comment sign-up sheet at each board meeting. Persons wishing to address the board should sign in with their name, town of residence, and topic they are commenting on prior to the start of the meeting. Each speaker will have three minutes to present their comment. Speakers will be called to present their comments in the order in which they have signed up.

     

    • The Board president reserves the right to limit remarks from the public which are “repetitive”, “offensive”, or “defamatory”.

     

    • Public comments may not identify any person by name or position.

     

    • Public comments are not meant to be a dialogue, but rather a time for the board to hear comments from the public. The board may, at their discretion, offer comments or ask clarifying questions related to topics or issues raised by members of the public.
