CAUCUS <br />September 20, 1976 <br />Area Plan Conference Room <br />There are two items of importance to be determined at the Caucus to be <br />held at 7:30 prior to our monthly meeting. It is imperative that <br />members attend or at least state their opinions prior to Caucus on <br />these issues: <br />1. Due to conflicting time schedules, certain <br />members are unable to attend meetings on <br />the first Tuesday of the month. This date <br />is generally a County Council night as well. <br />Therefore, we must determine a date common <br />to all. Again, members might inform the <br />office of their availablity. <br />2. Usually, the Caucus does not provide enough <br />time to reasonably inform all members of <br />those details, for reasons of professional <br />behavior, that should not be shared with the <br />general public. It has been suggested that <br />the Commission meet in executive session, per- <br />haps at another date from the public meeting -- <br />to determine strategies and priorities. Pub- <br />lic meeting at a later date will allow members <br />to think over decisions prior to voting with -- <br />full knowledge of the issues at hand and fin- <br />ally permit the meeting to move with speed and <br />efficiency. <br />This executive session could be held prior to <br />meeting. However, discussion does take time, <br />and often a scheduled public meeting later, <br />deters full consideration of issues. <br />
