| Now we have public comment. Each individual speaker is allowed and less strictly adhere to a 3 minute period of time in which | 00:08:58 | |
| direct comments to the Board of County Commissioners, the Chair shall enforce the Board historically followed rules of order and | 00:09:06 | |
| decorum. The Chair may immediately refer to any comment and to staff or resolution to schedule a work session. | 00:09:14 | |
| 1150 Zero St. Greeley Co 806 Three Two or by emailing. | 00:10:06 | |
| Ctb@well.gov or by visiting 11. | 00:10:15 | |
| 1150 oh St. Greeley 80631 I'm sure Point of order. This language was made in a meeting that was closed to the public and asked for | 00:10:18 | |
| a public work session on this language. I believe we need to tweak this a little bit more to allow for public comment. Petition | 00:10:25 | |
| Your government is a extension of the freedom of speech according to SCOTUS, so I think it's really important to take this back to | 00:10:31 | |
| a work session. | 00:10:38 | |
| Commissioner Freeman. | 00:10:46 | |
| So I don't know what private meeting you're referring to, commissioner saying. We asked, we asked the County Attorney to put | 00:10:47 | |
| together this language, and that's what he did. We were supposed to have a public works session to discuss language and then | 00:10:53 | |
| direct the County Attorney. I thought I made that clear. I knew what policy. | 00:10:58 | |
| The policy we usually do and the inaccessible to the public regarding public comment has been very, very important to them. | 00:11:04 | |
| I agree with the work session. I disagree with your assertion. | 00:11:12 | |
| Can we call the work session at least we can go on that. That is something that you'll have to file with Carla. I will do that. | 00:11:15 | |
| You need to check with the chair to file any schedule. I'll ask the chair one more time. Thank you. | 00:11:20 | |
| All right. We were is there any public comment? | 00:11:29 | |
| All right, we will adjourn. | 00:11:35 |
