Board of Education Meeting Minutes June 19, 2017
VI. Statement of Public Notice
This is a regular Meeting of the Board of Education of Bernards Township.
Notice of the time and place of this meeting was provided and copies of that
resolution were forwarded to the official newspapers as designated by the Board
of Education and to the Township Clerk and a copy of the notice was posted on
the bulletin board of the Board of Education Offices in accordance with P.L. 1975
Chapter 231A.
We very much welcome input from the public. There are two times during regular
meetings that the public is invited to speak. One time is early in the meeting
before the Board votes, and you may speak about any item that is listed on
tonight’s agenda. Towards the end of the meeting, there is another public forum
to address any topic whatsoever.
When you approach the microphone, please state your name and address. In order
to run efficient meetings and to allow maximum opportunity for members of the
public to speak, the Board reserves the right to set a time limit for individual
comments and/or public comment portions of the agenda. Please understand that
public comment portions of our agendas are not structured as question and answer
sessions, but rather they are offered as opportunities to share your thoughts with
the Board. Any Board responses to public comment will be addressed during
Board Forum, or during committee reports.
There are times when a member of the public makes a comment or asks a
question about an employee. New Jersey statute does not permit us to discuss
personnel issues in public. Also as a matter of law, a Board of Education may
only vote for or against the hiring of an employee upon the recommendation of
the superintendent. If the superintendent does not recommend a person, that
person’s name is not listed on the agenda and there is no vote on that action.
If it is necessary for the Board to go into executive session at the end of the
meeting, we will provide an estimated length of time for the session and whether
any action is anticipated to be taken upon returning to public session.
