APPROVAL OF SCRIBE REPORT:
The Commission had a discussion about the Scribe Report and
the format for it, stating that the final draft does not
represent the notes as taken by the Commissioner who wrote
the report for that month. The Commissioners agreed that
Keith Beverly does a great job with the report, but felt
that it should either be their report as written by them or
Keith's report and written by him. Keith Beverly stated
the notes the Commissioners take help him to write a good
report. The consensus of the Commission was to place this
item on the next agenda with some options as follows: The
Commission would do the summary report without detail and
let staff polish the report in the format used by all
Commissions; staff would do the summary report on their own;
the report would be written as it is being done at this
time; or any other options staff may want to include.
The Scribe Report for the Meeting of March 18,
