1 MEMORANDUM TO: FROM: RE: Legal Staff of All City Boards, Commissions and Co7fnittees Jeannine S. Williams, Assistant City Attorneyo Rules of Procedure at Sunshine Board and Committee Meetings DATE: September 19, 2013 Effective October 1, 2013, Senate Bill 50, Chapter , Laws of Florida (attached) requires that members of the public be given a reasonable opportunity to be heard on a proposition before a board or commission ( board ) of a local government. A proposition would be any agenda item which is not one of the following items exempted by the law: (1) official acts which must be taken to deal with an emergency situation affecting the public health, safety or welfare if compliance with the requirements of Ch would cause unreasonable delay; (2) an official act involving no more than a ministerial act, including but not limited to, approval of minutes and ceremonial proclamations; (3) an act during a meeting exempt from the Sunshine Law, Section , Florida Statutes; or (4) an act taken when a board is acting in a quasi-judicial capacity. If a board adopts rules or policies in accordance with Ch and follows such rules or policies when providing an opportunity for the public to be heard, the board is deemed to be in compliance with Ch Rules regarding public comment are limited to those that provide guidelines regarding the amount of time an individual has to address the board; that prescribe procedures for allowing representative to speak for groups; that prescribe procedures for an individual to use to inform the board of a desire to be heard; and that designate a specified period of time for public comment. To assure full compliance with the law, all City boards (inclusive of all commissions and cormriittees meeting in the Sunshine) which are not acting as described in the exemptions above must allow public comment before substantive action on a proposition is taken by the board. The comments may be made at the beginning of the meeting or immediately before the proposition is heard or acted upon. The City Attorney s Office has prepared the attached rules of procedure which we recommend that all City boards adopt. Each board should adopt these or similar rules of procedure on or before its first meeting in October and implement the procedure no later than its first meeting in October. Failure to comply with the law can result in severe consequences. The new law authorizes the circuit court to issue an injunction for the purpose of enforcing Ch If a civil action is filed and the court deteaines that the board violated Ch , the court is required to assess attorney s fees against the board at both the trial and appellate levels.
