THE PUBLIC IS UNREPRESENTED IN ANY MEANINGFUL MANNER AT BCHD MEETINGS
It must be noted that only 10 of 69 attendees were unaffiliated members of the public according to the roster. The other 59 were BCHD Board, Executives, Management, Employees, Vendors, Consultants, Contractors, and Committee members. Clearly, BCHD stacks the meeting so heavily as for it to be useless from a public need and input perspective. 14% unaffiliated public has no practical voice.
TYPICAL DISTRICT MONTHLY PARTICIPATION IS LESS THAN 0.05% OF THE DISTRICT POPULATION
During the entire meeting cycle of BCHD (Board and Committees) for the May-June 2023 period, between 13 and 25 unique members of the public attended meetings. Even at 25 members, that is only 0.02% of the District population. Clearly, the public's voice is not being heard.
