<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2><SPAN class=663221710-29082005>I am
wondering when the first Council - Staff work planning call is to be
scheduled?</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2><SPAN class=663221710-29082005>I
somehow feel that the suggested calls to happen every other week, got smothered
in the subsequent scheduled calls of Council on other substantive
matters.</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2><SPAN class=663221710-29082005>I
would like to request that a planning call be scheduled this week or early next
week and be open to whichever Councillors wish to join - it would be desirable
for those Councillors who intend to join the call to let Glen
know.</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
