Description:
This is an opportunity for residents of the district to provide information for the Board when making a decision. We ask that comments be limited to three (3) minutes and encourage the use of a single spokesperson for a group of residents sharing comments regarding a common topic. We request that your public comments focus on issues or policies and not people. The Board's intention is to listen to the ideas, concerns, and thoughts of its constituents, however, the Board may choose not to respond immediately if they have not yet taken a position on a particular topic. Please do not take this as a sign of disinterest and know that the Board values the public's input and feedback.
