Suggestions for giving comments before Boards and Commissions
Begin by stating your name and address.
Make your presentation brief, focused, respectful, and to the point. If there are many speakers on an item, each speaker’s time may be limited. Preparing notes in advance can help keep your comments brief and focused on the points you want to make. Keep in mind, boards and commissions cannot consider finances in their decisions.
Choose one speaker to represent a group. If you are part of a larger group (such as a neighborhood association) and several people wish to speak, it is best to select one speaker to present your group’s support or concerns, or to select one person per topic that the group wishes to address.
Keep the discussion relevant. Focus your comments on actions the board or commission can take, and try to avoid issues that fall outside their jurisdiction (e.g. code violations, water taps, utility services, storm water management, etc.)
Say it once. Don’t repeat what previous speakers have already said. If your point has been made by someone else, you can choose to not speak (even if you’ve already signed up to speak).
