The Board of Administration (“Board”) will generally, upon request, provide appropriate aids and  
services leading to effective communication for individuals with disabilities so they can participate  
equally in the Board’s meetings, including qualified sign language interpreters, documents in Braille,  
and other ways of making information and communications accessible to people who have speech,  
hearing, vision or other disabilities.  
Anyone who requires an auxiliary aid or service for effective communication to participate in a Board  
meeting should contact the designated contact in Office of Retirement Services as far in advance of the  
scheduled meeting as possible. The Board strongly encourages individuals with disabilities to endeavor  
to submit requests for reasonable accommodation no later than five (5) business days before the  
scheduled meeting, as the Board may not be able to grant requests for reasonable accommodations  
without sufficient advance notice. The Board strongly encourages individuals with disabilities to submit  
their written requests via email or regular mail to facilitate tracking and response; however, if the  
submission of a written request constitutes a hardship, individuals may call the Office of Retirement  
Services to submit an oral request. The designated contact in the Office of Retirement Services will  
endeavor to respond to each request within three (3) business days of receipt of the request. Depending  
on the request, the designated contact in the Office of Retirement Services may ask to schedule a time to  
discuss the request (which may occur virtually) to determine the most appropriate auxiliary aid or  
service, before the request is resolved.

The City of San José’s Code of Conduct for Public Meetings in the Council Chambers  
and Committee Rooms  
0) is intended to promote open meetings that welcome debate of public policy issues  
being discussed by the City Council, their Committees, and City Boards and  
Commissions in an atmosphere of fairness, courtesy, and respect for differing points of  
view.  
In furtherance of these principles, the Board’s Public Comment Policy establishes  
reasonable regulations governing public comment at its meetings and Committee  
meetings, consistent with the Ralph M. Brown Act, Government Code §§ 54950 et seq.  
Relevant provisions of the Public Comment Policy are listed below, and the full policy is  
available here:  
c%20Comment%20Policy%20%20-asterisk-.pdf  
A. Public Speaker Recognition & Identification: Members of the public who wish to  
address the Board or its committees may state their name and affiliation for the record.  
Speakers will be called on in turn, and time limits as prescribed below will be set to  
ensure the meeting runs orderly.  
B. Public Comment on Agenda Items: The public shall be afforded the opportunity to  
address the Board or Committee on each item on the agenda, limited to the matters  
directly related to the item under consideration, including closed session items prior to  
adjournment into closed session.  
For each agenda item, the Chair shall invite public comment after the staff presentation  
and before Board or committee deliberation and action.  
No individual shall be permitted to address the Board or Committee more than once on  
the same agenda item.  
Each speaker is normally limited to two minutes per agenda item. Moreover, a speaker  
may not yield their time to another member of the public, bypassing the two-minute limit.  
If more than twelve individuals request to speak on a single agenda item, the Chair may  
reduce individual speaker time to one minute.  
In all cases, the meeting Chair will allow twice the allotted time for a speaker who  
requires the use of a translator to address the Board or Committee.  
C. General Public Comment: Each agenda shall include a designated General Public  
Comment item during which the public may address the Board or Committee on the  
subject matters within its jurisdiction that are not otherwise listed on the agenda.  
D. Remote Public Comment: When remote public comment is offered, speakers  
participating remotely shall be subject to the same rules, time limits, and procedures as  
in-person speakers.  
The Chair may, for meeting management purposes, sequence speakers by taking  
in-person public comment before remote public comment. Remote speakers shall be  
afforded the same individual time limits and total comment times as in-person speakers.  
E. Chair Authority and Orderly Conduct: The Chair is responsible for maintaining the  
orderly conduct of meetings.  
The Chair shall:  
1) Enforce time limits and procedural rules established by this Policy.  
2) Provide notice and redirect speakers who stray from the subject of the agenda, or the  
subject matter jurisdiction of the Board or Committee.  
3) Remove or mute speakers who engage in disruptive conduct, including behavior that  
impedes the orderly conduct of the meeting, after appropriate warning that their  
behavior is disorderly and that their failure to cease such behavior may result in their  
removal, consistent with the Ralph M. Brown Act.  
For the purpose of this Policy, “disruptive conduct” shall mean:  
(1) Behavior during a meeting of the Board or Committee that actually disrupts, disturbs,  
impedes, or renders infeasible the orderly conduct of the meeting;  
(2) a failure to comply with this Policy; and  
(3) Behavior that constitutes use of force or a true threat of force that has sufficient  
indicia of intent and seriousness, that a reasonable observer would perceive it to be an  
actual threat of use of force by person making the threat.  
This Policy supports open, lawful public comment and does not restrict the public’s  
right to express criticism or viewpoints regarding the Board, its committees, staff, or the  
department.  
F. Signs and Symbolic Materials: Members of the public may bring objects and symbolic  
materials, such as signs or banners, to meetings of the Board or its committees, subject  
to the following restrictions:  
1) Size and Construction – No object shall be larger than two feet by three feet. No  
sticks, posts, poles, or similar items shall be attached to any sign or symbolic material.  
Items may not create a building maintenance problem or a fire or safety hazard.  
2) Display and Conduct – Persons displaying signs or symbolic materials must remain  
seated while doing so and may not raise items above shoulder level, obstruct the view  
or passage of other attendees, or otherwise disturb the conduct of the meeting.  
3) Prohibited Items – Objects deemed a threat to persons at the meeting or to facility  
infrastructure are not permitted. ORS staff and building security are authorized to  
remove items and/or individuals from the meeting room if a threat exists or is perceived  
to exist. This restriction does not apply to firearms carried by active or retired law  
enforcement officers authorized to carry under applicable law. All other weapons,  
dangerous materials, and items unrelated to the meeting that create a safety or security  
concern are prohibited.  
4) Prohibited Obscenity – Images or content of lewd material depicting sexual acts shall  
not be permitted.  
Exceptions to the Board’s Public Comment Policy may be made in the discretion of and  
by direction of the Chair.  
Failure to comply with the City’s Code of Conduct and the Board’s Public Comment  
Policy will disturb, disrupt, or impede the orderly conduct of the meeting and may result  
in removal from the meeting.
