PDC says it will stop taking public comment during brief adjudicative calendars
Summary
Chair Jay Leach announced that the Commission will stop accepting public comment during future brief adjudicative calendars because the full Commission is not present and the calendars are intended to resolve individual enforcement or modification cases; the Commission made an exception for one commenter present March 13.
Chair Jay Leach announced during the March 13 brief adjudicative hearings that the Public Disclosure Commission will not accept public comment during future brief adjudicative calendars.
Leach said the main reasons are that the full Commission is not present at those hearings and the calendars exist to resolve individual enforcement or modification cases. He made a one‑time exception to allow a public commenter present that day to speak. The announcement was made on the record immediately before the public comment period and will apply to future brief adjudicative calendars. The Commission did not hold a separate vote on the policy during the hearing and said staff would implement the change for upcoming calendars.
