XV HEARING OF RESIDENTS (Agenda Items Only) Pursuant to the Open Public Meetings Act, the Board will set aside time during two sections of every public meeting for comments from the public. The first section will take place prior to the presentation of Agenda items for the Board's consideration and vote, and will be limited to comments on items listed for action tonight. The second section will take place immediately prior to the Good of the Order and Adjournment, and may include comments on any school district issue that a member of the public feels may be of concern to the residents of the school district. The Board encourages questions, feedback and viewpoints. School Boards are strengthened by diversity of viewpoints to foster dialogue in a spirit of school-community partnership that builds effective policy and problem-solving. The provisions of Board Bylaw 0167 shall be strictly enforced with regard to public comments: . All public comments shall be directed to the Board President, who may refer issues to Administrators, Committee Chairs, or the Board’s attorney; . The total time for each participant shall be five (5) minutes, during which time a member of the public may speak on as many items as he or she chooses; . No member of the public may “give their time” to another participant; . Respectful disagreement is expected and respected. However, the Board President reserves the right to interrupt, warn, or terminate a participant’s statements when the statement is too lengthy, abusive, obscene, or irrelevant to an item on the meeting’s action agenda; . The Board President also reserves the right to request an individual to leave the meeting, to enlist the assistance of law enforcement, and/or to call for a recess or adjournment of the meeting when the lack of public decorum so interferes with the orderly conduct of the meeting as to warrant such action.

BOARD ACTION ITEMS . Formal Board action requires a Motion, a Second, an opportunity for discussion, and a Board vote consistent with Board Bylaw 0165. . Action items within Agenda categories will be Moved and Seconded as a group, and will generally be voted on as a group. However, after the Motion and Second, any Board member may request that an item be voted on separately, in which case the Board President and Board Secretary shall note such request, and a separate roll call vote will be held on the item or items. . Board members are encouraged to express their opinions and to engage in respectful debate on all issues coming before the Board for action. . The Board President reserves the right to close discussion. All Board members also reserve the right to call for the termination of debate when they believe that the discussion has become unproductive. A Motion to Call the Question (or “Previous Question”) interrupts further debate, requires a Motion, a Second and a roll call vote of two-thirds of the full membership of the Board. If successful, the Motion terminates all further discussion of the item or items, and the matters shall proceed to a vote. If the Motion to Call the Question is unsuccessful, debate on the original matters resumes. . Once all discussion of an item or group of items has been closed, Board members shall vote in favor of or against the item or items. Board members also reserve the right to abstain from a vote or to register “no vote.” Abstentions and “no votes” shall be recorded but shall not be counted as votes in favor of or against the action item or items. . Consistent with Robert’s Rules of Order, all discussion must take place prior to the vote, and Board members may not vote “with comment.”
