Section A - Board of Trustees

Policy Number A032

Audience Participation- Board Meetings

It is the policy of the Trustees of the St. Charles City-County Library District to elicit input from patrons and citizens of the Library District.

A period of up to fifteen minutes for general comments from patrons and visitors shall be scheduled at the beginning of each Board Meeting.

Specific comments from patrons and visitors will be entertained under the appropriate agenda item, preceding the vote. If a citizen requests that an item be placed on the agenda for discussion, a signed request in writing should be made to the Director’s attention. The item will be placed on the agenda for action, information, or discussion at the next regular mailing of Board packets.

This policy does not pertain to employee grievances or citizens requests for reconsideration of library materials, both of which are addressed by other policies.
