Recommendation R3
The Grand Jury recommends that the Board amend their policy A-2(7) from the statement “Robert’s Rule of Order may be used as a general guide for the conduct of the Board’s meetings” to “Robert’s Rule of Order shall be used for the conduct of the meeting.” This holds supervisors to account for actions during the general meeting and promotes consistency for motions proposed and passed.
