At the Rates Committee meeting held last Friday morning, the small group of us agreed that keeping the group going to act as a kind of watchdog for the CCSD is a good idea. The Rates Committee is currently the only active committee from the larger group, but agreed that the larger group should be called together to address revising the mission of the CFRCCSD. We made no assumption about CFR’s plans for the future and whether or not they would want to be involved in something other than a rates issue.
What we did decide (by general consensus) were these things:
There will be a meeting on October 1, 2008 at Rabobank at 6pm to define the purpose of the group as it goes forward.
As the Rates Committee of CFRCCSD, we didn’t have the authority to change the mandate of the larger group (if it still exists) and a meeting with everyone interested is necessary. We wanted to make sure anyone who is interested has a chance to get involved. The regular evening meeting of the group has been on the first Wednesday evening of each month at Rabobank. A September 3 meeting would would make it impossible to get something in the paper. To give people enough notice so they could plan to attend, we decided the “redefining meeting” will be held on the first Wednesday in October. (October 1, 2008)
There will be an informal meeting on the first Wednesday of September (this week) at Rabobank at 6pm.
The agenda will consist of two topics: Discussion and planning for the October Rabobank meeting (see above) and discussion of what we’d like to see from a candidates’ forum – format, etc. (The Chamber has scheduled one on the 7th of October at the Vets hall.) No decisions about the group, its mission or its future will be made until the October 1 meeting. We will focusing on the future of Cambria at this meeting, so unless I get an request for an addition to the agenda, the Proposition 218 process and outcome will not be a topic of discussion. That would be a topic more appropriately addressed at a meeting of CFR, the group who lead the campaign or the CCSD. (And I hope it will be!)
Please join us at Rabobank this Wednesday evening at 6pm and on October 1, same time and place.
