TRIAL ON-LINE SPEAKER CARD REGISTRATION
The Measure G1 - Districtwide Teacher Retention and
Middle School Improvement Act Oversight Commission, in
its desire to take more targeted Public Comment on Agenda
Items, on a trial basis, within the current times allotted for
Public Comment, is returning to it past practice of taking
individual Public Comment on most items on the Agenda
(except Consent). As a result, a separate Speaker Card (Sign
In To Speak) is required to be filed by the commenter on
each Agenda Item eligible for Public Comment.
On line Speaker Card Registration (Sign In To Speak) opens
at minimum 72 hours in advance for a Regular Meeting or
at minimum 24 hours in advance for a Special Meeting. Use
the eComment Link to Sign In (Register) to Speak up to one
hour before the beginning of the meeting. Manual (Paper)
Speaker Cards also will be available at the meeting for
completion.
Sign In to Speak, on an eligible Agenda Item, as a matter of
equity, is first registered, first called, in order of
Registration whether participation is in person or virtually,
e.g. Zoom, or by audio, e.g., telephone.
For advanced pre-meeting Registration, You must establish
a one time OUSD eComment - Sign In (Register) To Speak
Account providing your First Name and Last Name and your
email address. Your First Name and Last Name, as
Registered, must also show as the Participant or Profile
Name on a teleconference system (i.e., Zoom, webex, other).
You will be requested to Register the first time you use
eComment - Sign In To Speak.
The Sign In To Speak System, after the one time registration,
will remember you by first name and last name associated
with your email address (profile), making it easier for you to
electronically Register or Sign In to Speak on an Agenda
Item at a future OUSD legislative meeting, e.g., Board,
committee, commission.
