Rationale

Fayette County Board of Education Policy 01.45 states,

“...Members of the public may address the Board during the period set aside by the Board without submitting an item for the agenda. No action shall be taken during this portion of the meeting on issues raised by employees or the public unless deemed an emergency by the Board...”

 Please note: Speakers will not be allowed to make any disparaging or critical remarks about individuals or employees of the District. Critical comments or complaints are processed through the District’s complaint procedures, which afford the individuals to whom comments or complaints are directed, the opportunity for response and due process.

H.2.a. There are two opportunities for the public to address the Board:
Rationale

At the beginning of the meeting, the public, who have signed up prior to the meeting, is invited to speak on items that are On the Agenda. This is not intended to be a time for debate, however, the Board will take the public's input into consideration when making their final decision this evening. Each speaker will be allowed a maximum of 5 minutes.

At the end of the meeting, members of the public who have signed up prior to the meeting are invited to address the Board on any topic of District-related concern that is NOT on the official agenda for this meeting (Policy # 01.45). Please know that since these items are not on tonight's agenda, our Board may or may not comment. It is important to know that this is not intended to be a time where issues will be debated. The Chair will determine the amount of time for each speaker, depending upon the lateness of the hour and the number of speakers.
