| 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. Agenda are available on the internet at www.ci.sf.ca.us/bdsupvrs.bos.htm.
THE AGENDA PACKET IS AVAILABLE FOR REVIEW AT CITY HALL, ROOM 244, RECEPTION
DESK. Board meetings are televised on channel 26. For video tape copies
and scheduling call (415) 557-4293. Cell phones and pagers are not allowed
in the room during a meeting. Results of each Board meeting can be obtained
about a half hour after the end of the meeting by telephoning (415) 554-5555.
Requests for language translation at a meeting must be received by the
Clerk of the Board of Supervisors at least 48 hours before the meeting.
For meetings on a Monday or a Tuesday, |
