Attendance
Note on these minutes: The attendance line lists the outgoing board (with Paul Joseph). After the swearing-in, Paul Joseph “stepped down from his seat” and the Board “welcomed Linda Wollschlager” before the reorganization votes, so the new board is counted present.
Present: Bruce T. Evans, Kathryn M. Coughlin, Kristen L. Pope, Richard Sidney, Linda Wollschlager
Absent: None
