What's going on? Go see for yourself!

You can learn a lot by attending board meetings around town.  They are all open to the public, unless in closed session.

The Airport Board and LexTran Board in Lexington should both be of concern to riders of mass transit.  These two groups meeting regularly and discuss a lot issues that effect your daily life.  There is always time alloted for public comment.  You can make one, or not.  It's not a requirement for you to tell them who you are and why you're there. If you want to comment, you may be required to give your name and address, like at council meetings.   But if you want to go, just do it.  I'm sure you'll feel really empowered just by attending.

What you should know:
1. There is always and agenda and you should ask for one.
2. Some meetings are in very small rooms and the table is reserved for board members.  You should always sit somewhere along the wall or in an obvious seating area, unless invited to join the table.
3. Remember you are a guest and should not bring noisy or smelly food and drinks.
4. Turn off your cell phone before entering.
5. Bring pen and paper to take notes.
