This schedule reflects the current meeting format for meetings as follows: Regular Meetings on the 2nd and 4th Thursday of each month at 7 p.m*.: Agendas for these “Regular” meetings can include any subject but in particular, matters of interest to the general public such as public hearings on rezoning petitions, budget discussions, and requests from County Departments that require action by the Board, etc. Thursday meetings include a time for “Public Comment” when attendees can speak to the Board for up to 5 minutes. Agendas are prepared and published in advance. All sessions are open to the public and are attended by members of the Press. Workshops on the 1st Wednesday of each month at 3:30 p.m.: “Workshop” meetings are less formal than the Board’s evening meetings and are intended for matters of a somewhat routine nature such as briefings by the County Administrator or department heads, discussions between staff and Commissioners and other “house-keeping” kinds of issues. Except under unusual circumstances, official action by the Board is not usually taken at Workshop meetings. Public hearings never occur as a part of these sessions. Generally speaking, individuals or groups do not appear before the Board during Workshop meetings unless invited by the County Administrator, a Department Head or Commissioner. However, a member of the public can schedule time at a Workshop to talk with the Board about an issue he/she may hope to present publicly at a subsequent evening meeting. There is not a “Public Comment” time during Workshops. Agendas are prepared and published in advance. The format for Workshop agendas differs from those of Thursday evening meetings. All sessions are open to the public and are attended by members of the Press. Cancelled meetings, special called meetings and special topic workshops are announced in accordance with requirements of State law. *PLEASE NOTE THAT DURING THE MONTHS OF NOVEMBER AND DECEMBER, THE TYPICAL MEETING DATES ARE OFTEN ALTERED TO ACCOMMODATE HOLIDAY SCHEDULES.
