Members of the public who chose to do so, may still attend the Governing Board meeting in person. Chairs will be arranged so that members of the public can sit far apart from each other. The audience area of the boardroom will be limited for the meeting, as the Governing Board is following the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s (CDC) guidelines and limiting the amount of people present in the room to ten (10). This number represents the Board members and staff who will be attending in person for the meeting. One or more members of the Board may participate telephonically. If the Governing Board room reaches a capacity beyond what is currently being recommended by Government agencies, the District may offer live streaming of the meeting in other rooms to abide by those recommendations.
