of the Board. If you wish to discuss any item on the Consent Agenda you can either fill out a
speaker card (located in the back of the board room) and give it to the Clerk of the Board (sitting to
the right of the Board) or, when the Chair asks if there is anything anyone would like to remove from
the ConsentAgenda, stand and approach the podium and request the item be removed. The removed
items are discussed at the end of the Regular Agenda.

heard. Items removed from the Consent Agenda are discussed under this section.
3. Public Hearing and Timed Items: this is where items that are required by law to be heard as a public
hearing are set. This is the section where appeals before the Board are usually discussed. Hearings
may start after the time listed, but will never start before the time listed.

Board on any matter not listed on the agenda. The Board, by law, cannot take action on any matter
not listed on the agenda, but may respond to statements or questions and provide staff direction.
