The people making these decisions need to hear your stories, the struggles you’re going through. We the people have the power to influence a better, more balanced approach, and we need to use that power before it’s too late.
Tomorrow, I will be speaking alongside San Diego business owners and employees. I hope to see you there!
If you’re unable to make it to the rally tomorrow, our next Board of Supervisors meeting is this Tuesday, November 17, 2020 at 9:00 am. I’m encouraging all business owners and employees who are suffering from these closures to call in.
Here are the instructions if you’d like to speak to the Board during the meeting:
• Step 1: Fill out the online Board of Supervisors tele-comments form to request to speak during the meeting via teleconference. The form must be submitted at least five minutes before the meeting start time. After completing the form, you’ll get instructions on how to call in to the meeting. The item will be #8.
• Step 2: Watch or listen to the meeting.
• Step 3: When the Board of Supervisors begins to discuss the agenda item you want to comment on, call in to the conference line and turn off your TV or live stream. You’ll continue to hear the Board meeting after calling in. Please do not call until the item you want to speak about is being discussed.
• Step 4: When it is time for public comments on the item you want to speak about, Clerk of the Board of Supervisors staff will unmute your phone. You’ll hear a prompt that will indicate your phone is unmuted. Staff will then ask you to state your name and begin your comments.
