MADE BY NISSAN 10 THE, BRUSSELS POST, MARCH 22, 1978 Huron Board sets time for public The Huron County Board of Educationadopted a policy, at its Monday meeting that assures a time period be set aside for public input into any major board decisions. The board accepted, the policy, prepared by director of education. John, Cochrane, which will govern procedure on matters affecting any interested group in the board's area of jurisdiction. The decision basically means that a minimum of four weeks will be set aside for public input into 'board decisions before the board takes any final action. Mr. Cochrane told the board that the policy is already in practice but is not written down anywhere and he just wanted to get something ..on paper. The system now dictates that any policy to be adopted by the board will' be put on the agenda for 'a meeting as“ an information item. The board will not make any decision on the matter at that' point but will send the matter to approp' riate committee. The committee will allow any interested groups to react to the proposals and Will bring that information to the next board meeting. Based on that `reaction the board will then be in position to take whatever action it deems necessary. Colborne Township trustee Shirley Hazlitt, said she was concerned that the new policy would serve only to delay board action. She said the decisions will not take three board meetings to handle, one meeting to recommend the matter to the committee, one for the committee to handle the subject and a. third for the board to ratify the decision. Mr.. Cochrane said that there was nothing to prevent the committee to take action on the matter from the time the "kite was first flown"; He said the committee could contact special interest, groups after it was first made aware of the matter and may be able to bring in a recommendation to the board at its next meeting. He said the committee could work closely with a superintendent. of education or the director to gather information relevant to the matter. "The board's concern was, not length ,of time but rather short- ness of time," said Mr. Cochrane. "The &ncern was that there is not enough time allowed for public input," In other btisiness the board accepted a recommendation from its executive committee that, a 15 minute question period be put on every board meeting agenda. The question period permits rate- payers or parents to question the board on any matters they are concerned with.
