CommissiononPersonswithDisabilities | 2018-11-28 | 24 | ITEM 2-A COMMISSION ON DISABILITY MEETING MINUTES Wednesday, November 28, 2018, 6:30 PM Acting Chair Jenn Barrett: So I would like to do a motion to move the January 9th meeting to February 9th, and it would be a retreat. And we would work out the timing, not sure what it will be, but I think it was like 10:00 to 2:00 last year. So do we have a second? Susan Deutch: I second. Acting Chair Jenn Barrett: Okay. All in favor? Arnold Brillinger: No, wait a minute. Let's have some discussion. Acting Chair Jenn Barrett: Go ahead. Arnold Brillinger: Yes, I don't think that we necessarily need to get less meetings because this group, when I look at the people here, there are a lot of things that can be discussed and voted on, and worked on in six meetings plus a retreat, and I would just not like to shorten it down again. So I'm saying we should still keep the January meeting and schedule a retreat somewhere. Acting Chair Jenn Barrett: Okay. And we also, I believe, have some speakers for our January 9th meeting. Correct, Laurie? So that's another thing that we want to take into consideration as well. Anto Aghapekian: I move that we have the January meeting, and also in addition, we have the retreat, so that we don't compromise the guests who will come on the 9th, and that's what I propose. Jennifer Roloff: I'll second that. That's okay. Acting Chair Jenn Barrett: We want to vote on that? Leslie Morrison: So, technically, those are conflicting amendments; one is to reschedule the January, 9th meeting. So I think you have to vote on whether you're going to reschedule the January 9th meeting, and if that motion doesn't pass, then you could have a second motion to have an additional retreat meeting, but I don't know how you amend the first. I don't think it's a friendly amendment. I think you have to vote down the motion on the first. Acting Chair Jenn Barrett: Okay. So we'll vote. Leslie Morrison: Yeah, take a vote on whether we're going to move the January meeting and everyone who thinks that we should have an extra meeting would then vote no to rescheduling the January meeting, and then we would have an additional I think that that would be the proper way to do that. Acting Chair Jenn Barrett: Okay. So we'll go back to the January 9th meeting, a motion to keep it as it is and not reschedule it. Leslie Morrison: The motion is to reschedule. So all those in favor of rescheduling the January 9th meeting to a February retreat, that's the motion that's on. You could also withdraw that motion if the 03/13/19 Page 24 of 32 | CommissiononPersonswithDisabilities/2018-11-28.pdf |
