RE: [council] Consent agenda issue :IGO-INGO Report to board
Council Members, Please find attached an updated version of the IGO-INGO Report to the Board that now includes Avri's suggestion of a table listing the submitted minority positions. The table was added to page 8 after the recommendations and implementation considerations. Thank you. B Berry A.

We should be able to send the Council a copy of the proposed appendix later today so that the report being considered as part of the consent agenda for Thursday will include it. I hope this helps.
