Each meeting will cover a different topic (schedule below or in PDF and PDF-Large Print). If you have comments that you have not yet submitted about a topic, please do so before the meeting date for that topic. You can post your comments to this blog or send them to tjsutcliffe@arcdc.net.
At each meeting:
- Participants will receive a summary of key issues and concerns submitted to date on the topic.
- Participants will also be welcome to bring forward additional discussion items on the day's topic.
- Participants will review and recommend resolutions to each discussion item.
The DDS MAC Legislative Committee recognizes that no single meeting date and time will work for everyone who might be interested. For this reason, we are exploring options such as a call-in number so people can participate by speakerphone from home or work, as well as the possibility of recording and podcasting each meeting. We also plan to convene one or more supplemental Saturday meetings. Stay tuned for updates!
