Welcome to the Meeting of the Board of Supervisors of the County of Ventura, also sitting as the Governing Board of the County Service Areas, Fire Protection District, Lake Sherwood Community Services District, Watershed Protection District, Ventura County In-Home Supportive Services Public Authority, Ventura County Library, Ventura County Public Financing Authority, and the Waterworks Districts.
The following information is provided to help you understand, follow, and participate in the Board meeting:
Public Comments – Public comment is the opportunity for members of the public to participate in meetings by addressing the Board of Supervisors in connection with one or more agenda or non-agenda items. Public comments by a member of the public at a single meeting are limited to a cumulative total of five minutes at such meeting unless the time allotment is increased or decreased by the Chair depending on the number of speakers. The public comment period during the opening part of the meeting to address non-agenda items is limited to 30 minutes total for all speakers; this 30-minute limit does not apply to items on the agenda.
Members of the public who wish to orally address the Board during public comment are encouraged to submit a blue speaker card to the Clerk of the Board. Members of the public who wish to submit comments but not orally address the Board should submit a yellow comment card to the Clerk of the Board with written comments.
To maintain a public meeting environment conducive and welcoming to receiving public comments from all members of the public, the audience is discouraged from engaging in displays of support or opposition to staff reports or public comments, including clapping, booing, hissing or cheering, that may create a disruptive or intimidating environment for members of the public wishing to participate. Any person who disrupts a meeting will be instructed to cease the disruptive conduct. Failure to do so may result in that person being removed from the meeting.
Members of the public who would like to augment their comments with visual or audio presentations using County equipment must submit their materials to the Clerk of the Board for review at least 24 hours before the meeting before use of County equipment will be allowed. The review will be conducted to determine only whether the materials are on matters within the jurisdiction of the Board, would be disruptive of the meeting, or would foster illegality, such as identity theft. If it is determined the materials are about matters not within the Board’s jurisdiction, or would be disruptive of the meeting, or would foster illegality, use of County equipment will not be allowed.
REMINDER: In order to minimize distractions during public meetings, all personal communication
devices should be turned off or put in a non-audible mode.
