One might choose to chalk it up to haste on the part of some staffer, but if legislators wish to accuse the Board of stifling discussion, perhaps there is some blame to share.

I didn't keep my first agenda, and I can't find it on line. So, I'm not sure about that, but that is my recollection.

You may not be a lawyer, but perhaps you ought to be. I, for one, appreciate your frequent and thoughtful investigation. Thanks for the examination of the issue, Tom.
