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 ringing and use of cell phones, pagers and similar
sound-producing electronic devices is prohibited. Violators may
be removed from the meeting room. 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

PACKET IS AVAILABLE AT CITY HALL, ROOM 244, RECEPTION DESK. Board
