3. Regular meeting day &time
• Reviewed the new sign-up sheet for meeting days & times on Google
Drive
• All committee members to fill out their availability
• Shared cloud document allows us all to see everyone else's availability
• HL will review the completed document to determine what works for a
regular day and time to meet every other week.
4. Next Steps
• Community Tours- sign-up sheet for committee
• Walking tours to view zoning on the ground (also satisfies a grant
requirement)
• These will be the main work the committee does through the end of the
year until the calibration tables are ready for review.

later and include our consultant.
