CSA BOARD MEETINGS AND MEMBERS' RIGHT TO SPEAK

1. All CSA Board Meetings will be open to the Members in accordance with the Florida

Statutes. 2. In addition to the rights described in the Florida Statutes, the Association has adopted the following rules regarding Members’ right to speak at CSA Board Meetings: a. Each Member may speak one (1) time on each item opened for discussion or included on the agenda after the Board has opened discussion on the item to the Association and before any action is taken on the item by the Board. b. Each Member has the right to speak for a maximum of three (3) minutes per agenda item and any other item opened for discussion. c. At the Board’s discretion, the Board may provide speaker request cards to be completed by Members wishing to speak at a meeting. It is preferable that speaker cards, that include the item to be addressed by the speaker, be completed prior to the commencement of the meeting; however, speaker cards will also be accepted after the meeting has commenced.
