Employees may circulate petitions on District premises other than permitted by the Civic Center Act only when the petitions relate to matters of general or public interest or to matters concerning the relationships of employees with the District. Petitions may be circulated only by employees who are off-duty and may be presented only to employees who are also off-duty, including, but not limited to, the duty-free lunch periods. An employee is off-duty before and after the assigned day of the individual employee and during his duty-free lunch period. Petitions may be circulated only in areas of District premises which are apart from assembled students and classes, including, but not limited to, employee lunchrooms or lounges.
