Summary

Supervisors adopted Rule 15 to clarify decorum and consequences for interruptions during board meetings; supporters said the rule ensures citizens can hear proceedings.

The board adopted a new Rule 15 addressing decorum at board meetings after minor edits to the draft (the word "profanity" was removed). A supervisor who worked on the rule said the policy will clarify expectations and consequences so "citizens have the right to hear these proceedings, without interruption."

The motion to adopt Rule 15 passed by voice vote and the new policy will be added to the board's meeting procedures.
