Fluvanna supervisors approve public‑comment time limits and enter closed session on public‑safety plans
Summary
The board voted to enter a closed session under Code of Virginia §2.2‑3711 to discuss public‑safety plans and approved new public‑comment time allocations for the next meeting (3 minutes per person with maximum totals and a proportional reduction rule), recorded 4–0.
During the meeting the Fluvanna County Board of Supervisors approved procedural motions to set public‑comment time limits and to enter a closed session to discuss public‑safety plans.
A motion to go into closed session cited section 2.2‑3711 of the Code of Virginia for the purpose of discussing public‑safety plans to protect public safety; the motion was seconded and the board returned to open session and certified that only lawfully exempted matters were discussed. The certification was read into the record and the roll call recorded the motion as passing 4–0.
Separately, the board approved a motion to set public‑comment rules for the meeting on March 18: individual speakers allotted three minutes each, with maximum totals for different hearing types (ZTA, SUP, general comment) and an amendment that, if signups exceed the allowed total time, per‑person time will be proportionally reduced so all listed speakers may speak. The voice vote approving the public‑comment limits was recorded as 4–0.
What’s next: the clerk will implement the timekeeping procedure and post the revised public‑comment rules with the next meeting materials; the board scheduled work sessions as needed before the next formal meeting date.
