At our Nov. 13 meeting we will be trying out a new forum for members to express their concerns. This is designed to streamline the meeting.

In lieu of statements and announcements a member forum will be held as the last item on the meeting agenda.

Members who wish to speak shall have two minutes to speak about any transit-related issue.

Names will be placed on the white board and no member will be permitted to speak unless they have the floor.

Members will be permitted to give the balance of their time to someone else so long as it is done within the two minute period originally assigned.

No member shall be added to the list again unless all members who have not spoken have had the opportunity to speak.

The member forum will continue for 60 minutes, until all names on the board have been called, or at the discretion of the Chair.

The Executive Board appreciates your cooperation as we attempt to facilitate thoughtful discussion.
