Please Note:

Persons wishing to speak on an agenda item: Chairman Borger will ask
patrons present if they want to address an item on the agenda. If a
patron wishes to address the Board on an agenda item they should stand
and state their name, relationship to the academy, and agenda item
they wish to address. The Chairman will direct the Secretary to record
the name(s) of the person(s) who wish to speak. The Chairman will give
time for the patrons to speak in the order they are listed after the
board has completed its preliminary review of the topic. The Chairman
may require a spokesperson if several patrons wish to address the same
topic. A time limit may also be imposed as needed.

Persons wishing to speak on an item that is not on the agenda:
Chairman Borger will ask patrons present if they want to address an
item not on the agenda. If a patron wishes to address the Board on an
item not on the agenda they should stand and state their name,
relationship to the academy, and the item they wish to address. The
patron must also explain why the item was not brought to the board’s
attention earlier so that it could be placed on the agenda. (State law
now requires all items added after the agenda is published to have a
legitimate explanation for not being on the published agenda.) The
Chairman will rule on the appropriateness of the topic for this
meeting and may refer the request to the administration for research
and scheduling at a later meeting. The Secretary will record the name
(s) of those speaking. If your item is accepted it will be added to
the agenda.

Recognition to speak: Each agenda item will receive a brief report or
explanation. Following the report the Board will be given an
opportunity to make a motion regarding the agenda item. A second to
the motion will place the motion up for a vote. Each board member will
be given the opportunity to express an opinion with potential debate
among the board members. The Chairman will then call the first person
on the list for that agenda item to speak to the board. To address the
board please move to the front of the room. Please have your comments
prepared and keep them as precise as possible. After speaking, board
members may question you if desired. After everyone on the list has
spoken the board will be given the opportunity to debate again and
then vote on the measure.
