MONITOR (LEVEL 6)
Public Comment Restricted to Closed Session Topics
📅 November 16, 2026
The board’s agenda for its November 16, 2026 meeting limits public comment exclusively to items scheduled for discussion in closed session. This practice may constitute an unreasonable content-based restriction on speech in a limited public forum, preventing citizens from addressing the board on other matters of public concern.
Intake Action

PRE-MEETING ACTION: Send a legal notice to the Board regarding Item 3, identifying the potential First Amendment issue with restricting public comment to only closed session topics. Preserve the agenda as evidence of the practice.
