 ADJOURNMENT

 Meeting Procedures

 The Board of Supervisors
 is the Legislative Body of the City and County of San Francisco. The
 Board considers ordinances and resolutions, most of which have been
 the subject of hearings before the standing committees of the board
 at which members of the public are urged to testify. The full Board
 does not hold a second public hearing on measures which have been heard
 in committee.

 Board procedures do not permit persons in the audience to vocally express
 support or opposition to statements by Supervisors or by other persons
 testifying. Thus applause and booing are both contrary to Board requirements.
 The Board does not permit signs to be brought into the meeting or displayed
 in the room.

 Citizens are encouraged to testify at Board hearings and to write letters
 to the Board and to its members, City Hall, 1 Dr. Carlton B. Goodlett
 Place, Room 244, San Francisco, CA 94102.
