	ADJOURNMENT

Meeting Procedures

The Board of Supervisors is the Legislative Body of the City and County of San Francisco. The Board considers ordinances and resolutions, most of which have been the subject of hearings before the standing committees of the board at which members of the public are urged to testify. The full Board does not hold a second public hearing on measures which have been heard in committee.
Board procedures do not permit persons in the audience to vocally express support or opposition to statements by Supervisors or by other persons testifying. Thus applause and booing are both contrary to Board requirements. The Board does not permit signs to be brought into the meeting or displayed in the room.
Citizens are encouraged to testify at Board hearings and to write letters to the Board and to its members, City Hall, 1 Dr. Carlton B. Goodlett Place, Room 244, San Francisco, CA 94102.
