Austin ISD may extend the time of citizens communication at upcoming board meetings to give the public more opportunities to comment on its ongoing superintendent search.
School board trustee Tamala Barksdale suggested adding more time to the district's scheduled citizens communication—or adding citizens communication to additional meetings—to allow the public more opportunities to provide feedback on how AISD is conducting its superintendent search.
"People have things to say about shaping the search, the search process and ultimately the selection of the next superintendent, while of course that remains the board's responsibility," she said.
Members of the community can address the board during the public comment period at the beginning of each regular board meeting. Each speaker is limited to two minutes, and there is a limit of 30 speakers.
