SUBJECT:

Agenda Item 4, July 10, 1981, Board Meeting--
Procedure for Adopting Meeting Agendas

1. As my June 2, 1981, memO to the Board noted, our organic
statutes make no particular provision for notice to the
public of board meetings and of the business to be con-
ducted at a meeting. In my June 2nd memo, I suggested
that we adhere to whatever agenda is announced in advance
and not add items to the agenda at a meeting.

2.

Some Board members have commented on that proposal.
light of those comments, a revised procedure is set
below.

In
forth

3. Recommended procedure:

A. A draft agenda for each meeting will be circulated
to the Board in advance. of its distribution to the
public.

B. Items not included in the draft agenda will be added
at the request of any Board member.

C. In the event that more business is proposed than can
be conducted, the Director will consult with the
Chairman, Vice-Chairman, and Board member who desires
to have an item added to the agenda in order to estab-
lish priorities for the conduct of business, including
the deferment of some items to a subsequent meeting.

D. The Board will take action on or make decisions about
only such items as are included in the agenda for a
meeting as distributed to the public in advance of
the meeting. However, informational items requiring
no Board action may be added to the agenda at a meeting.
In addition, items which will entail Board action
may be added to the agenda at a meeting so long as
the Board defers taking action or making a decision
until a subsequent meeting.
