Except in cases in which the public welfare is involved, a minimum of 3 working days' notice shall be required before the board will convene.

When the board has taken jurisdiction of a case where a dispute exists, it may, at its discretion, recess the hearings for any reasonable purpose and may call a subsequent meeting as soon as practicable at any appropriate place or time which it may designate for a continuation of the proceedings.
