Regular meetings of the Board of Supervisors shall be held in the chambers of the Board of Supervisors in the County Government Center, 70 West Hedding Street, San Jose, California, or in another location conspicuously posted. Regular meetings shall be held on Tuesdays, at a set time chosen by the incoming Board President, who shall notify the Clerk of the Board of the chosen time prior to the first meeting in January of each year. The Board shall approve the proposed calendar year's schedule of Tuesday regular meetings prior to the first meeting in January of that year. In addition, regular meetings primarily for ceremonial presentations shall be held on the Monday preceding the first Tuesday regular meeting of each month at a set time chosen by the incoming Board President, who shall notify the Clerk of the Board of the chosen time prior to the first meeting in January of each year. These regular meetings for ceremonial presentations may also be combined with a regular meeting for the purpose of adjourning or recessing into closed session. Said schedule of regular meetings may be amended from time to time, as necessary. Regular meetings shall also be held in the chambers of the Board of Supervisors in the County Government Center, 70 West Hedding Street, San Jose, California, for the purpose of adjourning into a closed session on the Monday preceding each Tuesday regular meeting, at a set time chosen by the incoming Board President, who shall notify the Clerk of the Board of the chosen time prior to the first meeting in January of each year.
