Time Limits

Public comments are welcomed during the Public Comment period for all matters, whether listed on or off the

agenda, and are limited to three (3) minutes per person or as designated by the Citizens Advisory Board Chair at

the beginning of the meeting. Additionally, public comment of three (3) minutes per person will be heard during

individually numbered items designated as "for possible action" on the agenda. No action may be taken on a

matter raised under general public comment until the matter is included on an agenda as an item on which action

may be taken. Persons may not allocate unused time to other speakers.

Forum Restrictions and Orderly Conduct of Business

The Citizens Advisory Board is an advisory body providing community comments and recommendations to Washoe

County governing boards. Comments and dialogue centered around the key principles of dignity: inclusion, safety,

recognition, fairness, understanding, acknowledgement, independence, accountability benefit of the doubt, and

acceptance of identity are encouraged. The presiding officer may order the removal of any person whose

statement or other conduct disrupts the orderly, efficient or safe conduct of the meeting. Warning against

disruptive conduct may or may not be given prior to removal. The viewpoint of a speaker will not be restricted, but

reasonable restrictions may be imposed upon the time, place and manner of speech. Irrelevant and unduly

repetitious statements and personal attacks which antagonize or incite others are examples of speech that may be

reasonably limited.

Responses to Public Comment

The Citizens Advisory Board can deliberate or take action only if a matter has been listed on an agenda properly

posted prior to the meeting. During the public comment period, speakers may address matters listed or not listed

on the published agenda. The Open Meeting Law does not expressly prohibit responses to public comments by the

CAB members. However, responses from CAB members to unlisted public comment topics could become

deliberation on a matter without notice to the public. On the advice of legal counsel and to ensure the public has

notice of all matters the Citizens Advisory Board will consider, CAB members may choose not to respond to public

comments, except to correct factual inaccuracies, ask for County staff clarification, or to ask that a matter be

addressed on a future agenda. CAB members may do this either during the public comment item or during the

following item "CHAIRMAN/BOARD MEMBER ITEMS"
