Looks like the BC had its way on all 3 votes today, which is pretty good for an ‘uneventful’ meeting.<br>

Since there is so little advance notice and so little on the agenda of much interest to many members, I suspect most members will not attend. But I am happy to answer questions on or off the list about anything before the Council or otherwise on tomorrow’s agenda.<br>

Here also is a link to the Council’s Pending Project List, which in turn contains links to everything the Council is involved in.<br>

Another rather uneventful Council meeting, very little substance to report. I do not expect that to change much until after the Board retreat, if there are any resolutions from it.<br>

Thanks,<br>
