Forum Restrictions and Orderly Conduct of Business. The Board of Fire Commissioners conducts the

which antagonize or incite others are examples of speech that may be reasonably limited.  
Responses to Public Comments. The Fire Commission 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 Fire Commission. However, responses from  
Fire Commissioners 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 Fire Commission will consider, Fire Commissioners may choose not to respond to public comments,  
except to correct factual inaccuracies, ask for District staff action or to ask that a matter be listed on a  
future agenda. The Fire Commission may do this either during the public comment item or during the  
following item "Commissioners'/Fire Chief's announcements, reports and updates, requested for  
information or topics for future agendas."
