More About the Meetings
The first section of the meeting is called Public Comments. The Public Comments portion of the agenda is when individuals may comment on items on the agenda. Each individual is limited to three (3) minutes for such comment. Neither the Board of Supervisors nor Staff is obligated to provide a response until sufficient time for research or action is warranted. IF THE COMMENT CONCERNS A MAINTENANCE RELATED ITEM, THE ITEM WILL NEED TO BE ADDRESSED BY THE DISTRICT MANAGER OUTSIDE THE CONTEXT OF THIS MEETING.
The second section is called Business Administration. The Business Administration section contains items that require the review and approval of the District Board of Supervisors as a normal course of business.
The third section is called Business Items. The business items section contains items for approval by the District Board of Supervisors that may require discussion, motion and votes on an item-by-item basis. Occasionally, certain items for decision within this section are required by Florida Statute to be held as a Public Hearing. During the Public Hearing portion of the agenda item, each member of the public will be permitted to provide one comment on the issue, prior to the Board of Supervisors’ discussion, motion and vote. Agendas can be reviewed by contacting the Manager’s office at (239) 936-0913 at least seven days in advance of the scheduled meeting. Requests to place items on the agenda must be submitted in writing with an explanation to the District Manager at least fourteen (14) days prior to the date of the meeting.
The fourth section is called Staff Reports. This section allows the District Manager, Engineer, and Attorney to update the Board of Supervisors on any pending issues that are being researched for Board action.
The final section is called Supervisor Requests. This is the section in which the Supervisors may request Staff to prepare certain items in an effort to meet residential needs.
Public workshop sessions may be advertised and held in an effort to provide informational services. These sessions allow staff or consultants to discuss a policy or business matter in a more informal manner and allow for lengthy presentations prior to scheduling the item for approval. Typically no motions or votes are made during these.
