VIII. RECOGNITION OF VISITORS

Recognition of visitors is a time for community members and District employees to express a point of view, not to debate an issue. There will be a sign-up sheet for the public to identify their name, address, phone number, name of the organization you represent (if any) and a brief description of the topic to be addressed. Public comments may also be made via Zoom (click on the ‘hand’ to request to be unmuted if you would like to comment.) The public may submit public comments electronically to the Board of Education through the following email address: publiccomments@cusd50.org. Written comments will be read aloud at the meeting. A member of the District 50 administrative staff will follow up with you within 48 hours of this meeting to determine if you would like to discuss the issue further. Comments are limited to 3 minutes for an overall maximum of 30 minutes and/or a 20 minute-maximum total length for any one subject (See Board Policy 2:230).
