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
