IV. Public Forum - Citizens are offered an opportunity to address the Board without prior approval. Presentations shall be informative only.  The Board requests that presentations not include statements that may be considered defamatory. Presenter(s) should conduct themselves with common courtesy and in a respectful manner. In accordance with State law and District policy, disruptive conduct must be avoided so as not to interfere with the meeting. If a presentation includes a complaint against an employee of the District, proper channels set out in District policy to seek resolution before bringing the matter to the Board should be exhausted. The Board shall not tolerate disruption of the meeting by members of the audience. If, after at least one warning from the presiding officer, any person who continues to disrupt the meeting by his or her words or actions, the presiding officer shall request assistance from law enforcement officials to have the person removed from the meeting.
