What are the different types of board meetings?
Regular Meeting
Annually the board approves a calendar of regular board meetings during the annual organizational meeting held in January. Regular meeting agendas must be posted at least 72 hours before the meeting and must allow public comment on both agenda and non-agenda items.
Special Meeting
If the board needs to conduct business outside of regular meetings, they will schedule a “Special” meeting. Special meetings often facilitate study sessions, board workshops, or presentations, but can also be scheduled to address time-sensitive business. Special meetings must be posted 24 hours before the meeting and only allow for public comment on items on the agenda.
Closed Session
Only matters legally allowed by the Brown Act will be discussed in closed session. These matters include employee contract negotiations, district litigation, personnel matters, and the superintendent evaluation. Closed session meetings must be part of a regular meeting or a special meeting and will allow for public comment prior to the board beginning a closed session.
Action in closed session is reserved for only specific types of items (Ed Code 54954.5). Actions taken in closed session will be reported out in accordance with the law.
Emergency Meeting
An emergency meeting will be held in case of an emergency situation for which prompt action is necessary due to the disruption or threatened disruption of public facilities.
