Workshop Meeting (Committee of the Whole)

If it is a month with two meetings, the first meeting is considered a "workshop'' meeting to offer informational presentations as needed and to discuss agenda items. These workshop meetings are also referred to as “Committee of the Whole’’ meetings and feature a review of the month’s agenda, discussion among board members about various issues, informational presentations by administrators and a public forum for residents to be heard. They do not typically feature formal action by the board, but the board reserves the right to advertise the meeting as one in which action may be taken if necessary.

There is one opportunity for public comment during a workshop meeting.

The Committee of the Whole Workshop meetings are typically held at 5:30 p.m. on the second Wednesday of the month in the Administration Building, 151 Don Connor Blvd.

Regular Business Meeting

The regular business meeting of the board is typically held on the third Wednesday of the month. During regular business meetings the board's actions follow an agenda, which is posted on the district web site the day before the meeting and made available to the public at the beginning of the meeting. The board may also publish an addendum, which includes additional motions to be voted on at the meeting. An addendum is typically available in the meeting room just prior to the board meeting.

Although all votes and actions of the board must take place in a public meeting, state law allows a board to hold an Executive Session meeting to discuss matters that are of a confidential nature including personnel or performance matters, collective bargaining, anticipated litigation or purchase of real property. The board may vote to enter into an Executive Session at any point during a regular board meeting but must reconvene in public in order to take final action and/or to adjourn the meeting.

There are two opportunities for public comment during a regular business meeting.

Regular business meetings are typically held at either 5:30 p.m. or 6:30 p.m. on the third Wednesday

of the month in the Fine Arts Center of Jackson Memorial High School. The full schedule is below.
