14 <br /> <br />Comment: See G.S. 153-43. Compelling the attendance ora member by ordering the sheriffto take him <br />or her into custody is an extraordinary remedy to be used when a member obstinately refuses to attend <br />meetings, for the purpose of preventing action on a proposal. If the board contemplates using this power, <br />it might wisely g~ve absent members notice that their attendance is required by the majority and may be <br />compelled in this manner. <br /> <br />Rule 28. Public Hearings. <br /> <br />Public hear/ngs required by law or deemed advisable by the board shall b~ c, rga~2zc~ ~y a zpcc:,al <br /> <br />forth by the NorthCar01ina.Gener.~il .S~/~t.e.S, including the subject, date, place, and time of the <br />hearing. Prior to the beginning of the public hearing, the chair may set any roles regarding the length <br />of time allotted to each speaker, designating representatives to speak for large groups, and other such <br />rules he feels reasonable to conduct the hearing. At the appointed time, the chair 'shall call the <br />hearing to order and preside over it. When the allotted time expires, the chair shall declare the <br />hearing ended and the board shall resume the regular order of business. <br /> <br />Comment: G.S. 153A-52 provides that public hearing may be held anywhere within the county and g/ves <br />the board author/ty to adopt rules governing the hearings. <br /> <br />Rule 29. Quorum at Public Hearings. <br /> <br />A quorum of the board must be present at all public hearings required by law. <br /> <br />Comment: G.S. 153A-52 implies that a quorum of governing board members is necessary for a public <br />hearing by providing that a hearing shall be deferred to the next regular meeting ifa quorum is not present <br />at the originally scheduled time. However, if the board decided to hold a public hearing not required by <br />law to gather a consensus of public opinion on an issue, the hearing could be held at several different sites, <br />with a few members at each site. <br /> <br />Rule 30. Minutes. Minutes shall be kept of all board meetings. <br /> <br />Comment: See G.S. 143-318.10(d) and the discussion of minutes (pages 48-49) in Bonnie E. Davis', <br />Handbook for North Carolina County Commissioners (second edition, revised by l'oseph S. Ferrell, <br />Institute of Government, 1985). G.S. 143-318.1 l(d) provides that minutes and other records ora ~ <br />session may be withheld from public as long as such inspection would frustrate the purpose of the ~ <br />session. <br /> <br />Rule 31. Appointments. <br /> <br />The Board shall use the following procedure to make appointments to fill vacancies in the board <br />itself or in other boards and public offices over which the board has power of appointment. <br /> <br />The chair shall open the floor to nominations, whereupon the members shall put forward and debate <br />names of possible appointees. If the nominations equal the number of openings, the board can <br />accept nominations by acclamation. After the debate, the chair shall call the roll of the members, <br />and each member shall vote. The votes shall not be tallied until each member has voted. <br /> <br /> <br />
