<p class="MsoNormal">Colleagues, as you can see from this tool, the “span” of time zones, along with the distribution of Councilors within those time zones, hasn’t changed much since last year. For example, we exchanged Mason for Darcy (Yay Portland!), Volker
for Michele, David for Rafik, etc. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">It was also this time last year when we shifted the rotation from 3 meeting timeslots, down to 2, after having determined that more time slots created significant complexities with little benefit. So if there aren’t any objections, I propose
that we keep the current 2 time slots, and adopt the meeting calendar that was previously circulated.<o:p></o:p></p>
