Thanks, Avri.  This is helpful.

The possibility of such a path is exactly why I was concerned about
restricting our options so far ahead of constituency statements and
public comments.

Hi,

My reason for including proposal for motions in the draft report was to
give people, constituencies and the public, a chance to comment on those
as well as on the content of the reports.

Nothing in the motion indicates that we cannot change motions or even
submit new ones.  Though, personally, I would hope that any new ones
would happen because the constituencies and the public review sent us
down a path we had not thought of already.  I think it is best, if our
general intentions were obvious from the beginning of the review.

My proposal is to vote on as many proposal as we have when it comes time
to vote.  Optimally we would evolve to one consensus motion, but if that
doeasn't happen then gauging things on the support various motions get
may be the best indicator we can give to the board and staff.

so I would think the answers would be:

1. no, but it would be a helpful indicator if there were a second from
    another constituency etc...
2. yes
3. no, but i think that any new motion should be tabled at least a week
    before the vote unless it really is a last minute revalation/
consensus
    that seems like a no-brainer to most all.

thanks for asking.

a.
