If a person or organization misses the delegation submission deadline, they may submit their item up to 12 PM EST the day of the meeting but will be only added to the agenda as a walk-on item if such a motion is made by a Board Member at the meeting and the motion passes by the majority in attendance or will be listed on the published agenda for the following meeting.
