We will therefore be faced<br class="">with limited choices:<br class=""><br class="">1) Fit the current schedule into the new meeting;<br class="">2) Cut down the council meeting to its bare essentials;<br class="">3) Add time to the meeting, very much like current practice;<br class="">4) Eliminate the council face-to-face meeting at the short meeting.<br class=""><br class="">Personally, I lean toward support for option 3, as the other options<br class="">would result in a loss of effectiveness of the council.<br class=""><br class="">Anyway, with this, I hope a fruitful discussion kicks off.<br class=""><br class="">-- <br class="">Bei weiteren Fragen stehen wir Ihnen gerne zur Verfügung.<br class=""><br class="">Mit freundlichen Grüßen,<br class=""><br class="">Volker A.
