Re: [dow2tf] More calendaring

Jordyn:
With respect for the Council and coordination, I will echo the concerns 
raised by Marilyn, Tom and Steve.  I agree that we only want to go to our 
constituencies once -- and that our prior unanimous agreement to go After the data was 
collected, compiled and placed into an Interim Report was a good decision.  
Our TF has a good amount of data gathering to conduct -- at the instruction of 
the Council through our DOW -- so we have a job to do.

With respect to Barbara, I don't fully understand why small projects are 
holding up data collection by weeks now.  It's hardly seems fair to the Council, 
the Constituencies, or the public not to proceed forward in a timely manner.  
The questions are done -- why aren't they out? 

Tom's revised schedule is realistic.  It is fair to our TF members, the 
Constituencies, the public -- and the Council which assigned us some very important 
tasks.  I hope you will take it to the Council; I hope they will understand.  


Regards and bon chance, Kathy
