Previously, anyone wanting to speak at a San Diego County Board of Supervisors meeting had to fill out a speaker slip before the meeting (either a written slip in person or online to make a public comment by phone). Beginning April 2, anyone can submit a simplified speaker’s slip online during the meeting — at any time before the board starts taking public comment on the item. If commenting by phone, the new system will alert callers when the meeting starts and give real-time notifications about the order of agenda items.
