Re: [council] Potential Topics / Action Items for Wrap-up

[Mason Cole <mcole@xxxxxxxxxx>]

I think for the benefit of our time during our public meetings, we could plan 
more carefully for the agenda by deciding whether or not a presentation is 
necessary in that session.  For example, if there's been a) a presentation 
during the weekend session on an issue, and b) a work session on the same issue 
during the week, where likely the same data was given, perhaps we could request 
to dispense with another during our meeting.  That doesn't entirely address 
Wolf's correct point -- just something to consider.
