Action Items/Discussion
1. ITEMS SENT TO OSC FOR REVIEW/APPROVAL: 2.1 Term Limits, 2.4 Board Seats, and 
5. SOI/DOI: These sections were sent by Ray Fassett to Philip Sheppard for 
distribution to the OSC for review and approval.

2. SECTION 3.8 ABSENCES: The Work Team discussed the need to avoid the term 
"consensus" to prevent confusion resulting from the possibility of differing 
definitions. Ken Bour agreed to revise the text accordingly and circulate a 
revision for final review.

3. SECTION 4 VOTING: The Work Team discussed the version of the document sent 
by Ken on 13 April and agreed to changes relating to the use of the phrase 
"appointing organization" as defined in Section 4.5.3. Ken agreed to revise the 
procedures to add a footnote to clarify the use of the phrase as it relates to 
Councilors who may be Nominating Committee appointees and to define the phrase 
earlier in the procedures. Ken will revise the text and circulate a revision 
for final review.

4. DEADLINE: Ray Fassett noted that the deadline for the Work Team to submit 
final documents to the OSC is 1 June. He suggested finalizing the documents by 
the next meeting, scheduled on 19 May.
