Members of the public can register to speak live during the meeting on certain agenda items. Speakers will be required to join the Zoom Webinar and will be asked to speak after the staff presentation to POSAC on each item.

Comments on Agenda Items Only
The board does not take comments during meetings on items not on the agenda. However, members of the public can submit comments using the comment form below, and all of the members will receive the comments. If it is an issue that is in an active public process, comments must be submitted through the webpage or public meeting dedicated to that topic.

Generally, each speaker will have a maximum of five minutes per item. In cases where many comments are expected, speakers may be limited to three minutes or another time limitation if appropriate. Pooling of speaker time will be permitted at the discretion of the chair. All speakers wishing to pool their time must be signed up for and present at the meeting. Time allotted for pooled speakers will be determined by the chair, not to exceed a total of ten minutes.
