The Loudoun County Board of Supervisors has adopted revisions to its Rules or Order (PDF) designed to streamline Board meetings. At its March 18, 2025, business meeting, the Board voted to:
- Eliminate the 5:00 p.m. public input session held during the second business meeting of the month. This session of up to 16 minutes of public comment was established in 2014 to accommodate seniors who did not want to or were not able to drive after daylight hours. This was prior to the advent of the availability of remote, electronic public comment, an option for residents that was established during the recent pandemic.
- Reduce the amount of time allotted for each member of the Board of Supervisors to provide comments, updates and disclosures from five minutes to three minutes. This is intended to reduce the overall duration of a typical business meeting.
- Clarify that the deadline for a member of the Board to make a request to participate remotely in a meeting is noon on the day of the meeting. The previous language was “at least five business hours prior to the meeting.”
These changes will be implemented at the next business meeting, which is scheduled on Tuesday, April 1, 2025.
The Board of Supervisors holds business meetings on the first and third Tuesday of the month at 4:00 p.m. The Board’s monthly public hearing is held on Wednesday of the week following the first business meeting of the month at 6:00 p.m. Information on how to sign up to speak during the Board’s meeting is available online at loudoun.gov/SignUpToSpeak. Dates and times of the meetings of the Board and its standing committees are posted on the Loudoun County calendar at loudoun.gov/calendar.
Meetings of the Board of Supervisors are televised on Comcast Government Channel 23 and Verizon FIOS Channel 40. The livestream and the documents prepared for the meetings are available at loudoun.gov/meetings.
