Work
sessions and retreats
The Board, as a decision-making body, is
confronted with a continuing flow of problems, issues and needs which require
action. While the Board is determined to
expedite its business, it is also mindful of the importance of planning,
brainstorming and thoughtful discussion without action. Therefore, from time to time the Board may
schedule work sessions or retreats, which shall be open to the public. No action shall be taken during such
sessions. Public notice of the session,
including the topics for discussion and study, shall be provided.
