Forum restrictions and orderly conduct of business.
The Washoe County REOC Joint Management Committee recommends operating policies and procedures for the
REOC to the Joint Executive Committee. The Chairman may order the removal of any person whose statement to
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 comments.
The Washoe County REOC Joint Management Committee 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 Committee. However, responses from Washoe County REOC Joint
Management Committee 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
Washoe County REOC Joint Management Committee will consider, Washoe County REOC Joint Management
Committee members may choose not to respond to public comments, except to correct factual inaccuracies, ask
for County staff clarification, or ask that a matter be addressed on a future meeting or district forum. Washoe
County REOC Joint Management Committee members may do this either during the public comment item or
during the following item: “REOC JOINT MANAGEMENT COMMITTEE MEMBER ANNOUNCEMENTS/ REQUESTS FOR
INFORMATION AND SELECTION OF TOPICS FOR FUTURE AGENDAS”
