D. Noda said that the bylaws cover the operation of the committee and its 11 years <br />old. Perhaps the bylaws should be updated if there is a committee that wants to <br />review it and make amendments. There should be Standing Committees consisting <br />of an Executive Committee, a Nominating Committee, a Legislative Committee, and <br />such program committees as the committee may from time to time designate. The <br />Legislative Committee can be brought up on a future agenda. D. Pung explained <br />that CSW has relied on M. Masunaga on legislative issues because she would <br />report back from the HSCSW. D. Noda suggested that if CSW knows that there is <br />an upcoming bill of importance or relevance for CSW, then a motion could be made <br />empowering the legislative committee with drafting something quick to be e-mailed <br />within 48 hours. <br />D. Noda explained that she was wrong when she gave CSW the advice that the <br />committee cannot fund the request from Barbra Green, AAUW, for the Math/Science <br />Conferencefor7thGradeGirls.Shefoundoutthatthereisapolicyfor <br />co-sponsorship and this is a mechanism for utilizing CSWs budget. <br />D. Noda reported that she will briefly cover Sunshine Law at the next meeting. <br />D. Guest Speakers € Council Member V. Isbell <br />None. <br />ANNOUNCEMENTS <br />A.
