Heads up, Texas taxpayers: we’ve reviewed the upcoming MONTE ALTO ISD agenda and found 1 items that deserve your attention before the gavel falls.
WARNING (LEVEL 6)
Public Comment Time Capped at 15 Minutes
📅 November 16, 2026
The board’s policy limits the total time for all public comments to just 15 minutes per meeting. This means if more than five citizens sign up for their allotted three minutes, some will be silenced, effectively limiting the public’s ability to hold the board accountable on important issues.
Response

Contact the Monte Alto ISD Board (see the Official Agenda link for contact info): ‘The 15-minute total cap on public comment in Item 3 silences taxpayers. The public’s right to be heard is not an inconvenience; remove this arbitrary time limit.’
