I would like to make the recommendation that make a couple of modifications to the timeline. I would like to give the community more time to discuss and understand.<br>
<br>
My recommendation is that we not hold a board vote at the November 4 board meeting. Instead let's do a vote in December.<br>
Add in additional community meetings and let's blog and include information in the newsletter in November.<br>
