Public hearing on Pasco student code of conduct closes with no speakers; online comments to be attached to record
Summary
Attorney Meeker opened the public hearing on the student code of conduct, said notice complied with Florida statutes, and closed the hearing after no in‑person speakers appeared; written online comments will be attached to the minutes and no vote was taken.
Attorney Meeker opened the public hearing on the district’s Student Code of Conduct, said notice had been published in compliance with Florida statutes, invited in‑person speakers to use a green speaker card, and closed the hearing after no one came forward.
Meeker said members of the public who wished to speak were asked to obtain a green speaking request card and that each speaker would have three minutes. “Notice of this hearing has been posted on the district website and publication and compliance with Florida statutes,” Attorney Meeker said in announcing the hearing. Meeker added that comments submitted through the district’s online “Let’s Talk” platform would be attached to the minutes and made part of the official record.
The transcript shows no in‑person speakers on the student code of conduct; Meeker closed the public hearing and explicitly stated that a vote would not be taken at that time.
Why it matters: The public‑hearing step fulfilled a notice requirement and created an opportunity for in‑person comments; the record shows no in‑person testimony and that online submissions will be incorporated into the official record for board consideration.
Ending: The public hearing was closed with no action taken at the meeting; staff will include online comments with the minutes for the board’s record.
