COMMUNICATIONS CHR. SIRACUSA: We have none. ORDER OF THE DAY / NEW BUSINESS COMM. 60: DISCUSSION REGARDING FINAL REPORT From Commission Chair Rene Siracusa, dated December 15, 2011; regarding the preparation and filing of the Commission's Final Report to the County Clerk. Ms. Ugalde moved to close file on COMM. 60 Seconded by Mr. Carvalho. CHR. SIRACUSA: Discussion? Who wants to start? MR. MIDDLESWORTH: I don't have much to say about the report itself, but I must say that Mike did a one hell of a good job of putting it together. CHR. SIRACUSA: He had a lot of help from staff, so we have to thank them as well, for everything, all along the line. MR. MELROSE: It's almost as if everybody, whatever work anybody did, always comes back to Karen at some point. I have just a couple of questions about it. I understand that the legal descriptions, which were one of the fundamental pieces of this, were provided by Esri, and approved as to the Clerk, so that that meets their requirement. So, if that is appropriate, without having to go myself and look at the descriptions, I am going to trust that. I'm wondering whether the Commission wants to try and make a more clear statement as a Commission about things that we would like to see changed. As it is now, the only place that shows up is in our personal comments attached at the end. So they reflect kind of a series of individual thoughts. So I am wondering if we want to have a specific set of recommendations that we, as a Commission come up with, understanding that when we do that, we will probably need to have a mechanism to approve it; to put that amended piece on the agenda in another meeting; whether we do that from remotely, or we sign off in some form. CHR. SIRACUSA: For the record, I believe Karen is showing - -- MR. MELROSE: Rather than whisper in my ear, let me just get my question out and then maybe Karen can help answer this with Mike. My understanding is that if we do try and amend this document in some way to emphasize the specific recommendations, that that may require us to come back. And I'm not sure, so I would be interested in some conversation on that topic. M
