appearing, but all comments must be relevant to the item. The Chairman or presiding officer may in his or her discretion
prohibit a person from addressing the Board or have any person removed from the building if that person commits any

being recognized by the Chairman or presiding officer; continuing to speak after notice that the speaker’s allotted time has
expired; presenting comments or material not relevant to the item under discussion; failing to comply with the lawful instructions
of the Chairman or presiding officer; engaging in other conduct, activity, or speech that disturbs, interferes, or disrupts with

of self or others. A person may also be subject to removal from the building for violation of Okla. Stat. Tit. 21, Sec. 280 –

must concern Trust services or policies. Please fill out a “Request to be Heard” form located outside the Chambers.
Please return this form to the Trust Secretary before the meeting begins. PLEASE LIMIT YOUR COMMENTS
