The bill establishes new requirements for public comment periods during regular and special meetings of school district boards of directors in Iowa. It mandates that each board provide a reasonable amount of time for public comment and allows any interested member of the public to speak during this period. However, the board may impose a uniform time limit on speakers if necessary due to the number of participants wishing to comment.

Additionally, the bill prohibits school district boards from requiring members of the public to be placed on the meeting agenda prior to the meeting in order to speak during the public comment period. This change aims to enhance public participation and ensure that community members can voice their opinions without prior restrictions.
