DISCUSSION / BACKGROUND
The goal of the Board is to implement consistency and transparency for all meetings to allow the public to participate in government processes. A hybrid meeting is one in which some members attend in person while others connect remotely. The benefits of these meetings allow people to attend regardless of geographical distance. It has also become an expectation of the public that public agencies conduct hybrid meetings. Hybrid meetings provide flexibility for the public to attend in person or remotely while still being able to participate in a meaningful and interactive manner.
