Since we once again did not have a quorum for our monthly meeting on January 3, 2007 (only 3 cities were represented along with Ms Smith), the following is a summary of what took place:

 

1.       Attendees

a.       Heyward Strong ( Valparaiso )

b.       Craig Barker (Destin)

c.       Mike Anderson ( Fort Walton Beach )

d.       Tina Smith (Shalimar)

 

2.       Discussion Topics

a.       Attendance – We discussed various ways to improve attendance, setting the agenda, and determining the need for a meeting.  What we will recommend at the next meeting is (1) a request for agenda items will go out ten days ahead of the scheduled meeting date, (2) the final agenda will go out five days ahead of the meeting, and (3) RSVPs will be required no later than Thursday before the Monday meeting.  If we do not have a reason to meet or the names of at least five City representatives who will attend, the meeting will be cancelled.

b.       Scheduling conflicts with our quarterly dinners – We will continue to schedule our quarterly dinners on the third Tuesday of January, April, July and October.  If this creates a conflict for the host City, we will try to work around it.

 

3.       Other business

a.       Next meeting will be Monday, Feb 12 at Two Trees (PLEASE NOTE the change to the second Monday).  Several members will not be available on the first Monday.

b.       James Campbell will be the new County representative to our League.

.

I don’t plan on addressing these items at our dinner in Destin on January 18 but I will be available to discuss them.  If you have any questions or need additional information before then or our next meeting, please let me know.
