Ojai Unified School District

Here are a few things you need to know:

• The Board may elect to limit public comments on any item to 30 minutes. 
• Comments are greatly appreciated, however, please note that the Board cannot enter into a formal discussion, nor can a decision be made on any item that is not already on the agenda. Items the Board wishes to consider for future discussion can be placed on an upcoming agenda.
• Routine items are part of the Consent Calendar and are approved by a single vote of the Board. When the agenda is adopted, a member of the Board can pull an item from the Consent Calendar and move the item to the agenda for discussion.
• Individuals who require special accommodation to participate in a board meeting, including but not limited to an American Sign Language interpreter, accessible seating, or documentation in accessible formats, should contact the Superintendent’s office 48 hours before the meeting to enable the district to make reasonable arrangements to ensure accommodation and accessibility to this meeting.
• To ensure that non-English speakers receive the same opportunity to directly address the Board, translation of written or oral comments will be available. 
• You can subscribe to our agenda mailing list by contacting Amanda Belcher at: abelcher@ojaiusd.org

Due to the scheduling logistics and the fluidity of the meeting, it will not be airing on the Ojai Unified Youtube channel or Facebook page.

Members of the public may present public comments in two ways:

1. Before 4 p.m. Friday, July 7, 2023, public comments can be made in writing by clicking this link: Make a Public Comment. Written comments will be sent to Board Members by 4 p.m. and will be posted on our website.
