Public Comment Policy
The Colorado State Personnel Board (“Board”) encourages public attendance at its meetings and welcomes public comment. The Board also has an interest in conducting efficient and orderly Board meetings.
I. General Procedures
- Any person may offer public comment during Board meetings.
- Comments should relate to general matters within the Board’s mission and authority, not to specific matters affecting only one individual.
- Comments may not relate to any Board adjudications because those comments may violate rules and procedures that ensure fairness.
- The Board generally provides a total of 30 minutes for public comment. The Board provides additional time for public testimony during rulemaking hearings.
- To allow the Board to conduct its business efficiently, the Board Chair has discretion to limit the amount of time for public comment.
II. Public Testimony During Rulemaking Hearings
- The Board receives and considers public testimony during rulemaking hearings in accordance with C.R.S. § 24-4-103(4)(a).
- Any person may offer public testimony during rulemaking hearings.
- Any person may also submit written comments to the Board by the deadline set in the Notice of Rulemaking that is posted on the Board’s website.
- If suggesting changes to a proposed rule, a person should reference the rule, describe the suggested changes, and explain the reasons for the suggestion.
- For further information, visit the Board’s rulemaking page on the Board’s website.
