California law requires the GRF Board to establish reasonable time limits for members to speak at meetings (Civ. Code Sec. 4925(b).), and how the Board responds to questions or concerns; most often the Board is unable to respond (Civ. Code Sec. 4930.).

A maximum of 30 minutes is generally needed for member comments unless there is an unusually large number of requests. Comments are limited to three minutes if there are no more than 10 speakers. If there are more than 10 speakers, members’ time will be allocated equally to be completed during the available time.
