Friends, as has been said before, while the major portions of the Charter that need to be completed before we open are completed and being discussed and/or voted on currently, there are still a number of important issues that need to be resolved. Among them are determining exactly how the Mayor will be elected, deciding how the Charter can be amended, and even what the Charter itself will be called. In addition the various approved and ratified portions of the text will need to be reviewed for consistency and accuracy.
After having taken a short break (mostly), we will be meeting again to discuss these final issues, and present our proposals on them to the membership for ratification. Several of the committee members have expressed a desire to take a break from the convention. At this point, we'd like to offer an opportunity to former committee members to return for this final leg, or for other members who would like to help out to join the committee to complete these tasks.
If you are interested in joining (or rejoining) the committee, please let me know either by posting here or sending me a PM by Thursday June 16.
Thanks.
