CONDUCT OF MEETING AND HEARING PROCEDURES
A - The primary duty of the
B - The purpose of the meeting is for the
Board to obtain testimony and information from staff and concerned and affected
parties and make decisions after considering the recommendations made by the
Executive Officer. The Board will vote
only on matters listed on the agenda.
The Board may give direction to the Executive Officer on any matter
discussed during the meeting.
C - Agenda
items are numbered for identification purposes and will not necessarily be
considered in the order listed.
D - RULES FOR LATE SUBMISSION OF WRITTEN
MATERIALS: This paragraph applies only
if there are no deadlines for written testimony or comments in a separate
hearing notice for an item. Written
material received after the due date on the first page of the agenda and before
noon on the Monday of board meeting week generally will not be provided to
Board members until the day of the meeting, but will become part of the record
unless the Chair rules that the late submission would prejudice the Central
Coast Water Board staff or any party.
Written material received after noon on the Monday of board meeting week
will not be provided to Board members or become part of the record, unless the
Chair rules that exclusion would create a severe hardship and that no party
(including Central Coast Water Board staff) will be prejudiced by the late
submission. The Chair will rule at or
before the hearing. Late submissions
that consist of evidence (as opposed to policy statements or comments) will
generally be deemed prejudicial unless all designated parties (see below) have
time to consider the evidence before the meeting.
E - The Board and staff welcome information
on pertinent problems, but comments at the meeting should be brief and directed
to specifics of the case to enable the Board to take the appropriate
action. Whenever possible, lengthy
testimony should be presented to the Board in writing and only a summary of
pertinent points presented verbally. In order to
give everyone an opportunity to be heard, comments should have been
previously submitted in writing and a time limit on presentations may be
imposed on any agenda item. Speakers
should plan to summarize key points within three minutes. Please notify staff three weeks prior to
meetings of a request for presentations planned for longer than three minutes,
for scheduling purposes. The Chair will
decide if the request should be granted.
F - Material presented to
the Board, as part of testimony (e.g., photographs, slides, charts, diagrams,
etc.) that is to be made part of the record must be left with Executive
Assistant, Carol Hewitt. Photographs or
slides of large exhibits are acceptable.
If you plan to use visual aids such as PowerPoint, contact the
