you know, press release bulletin.
<br />SANTANGELO: Put that all together.
<br />RAY: Right. You know, I distributed, you know, one that had some thoughts I
<br />came up with in terms of just description of the Charter and whatever, and so I think all those
<br />should be included at that time and, you know, get the press on board, as well.
<br />Reimbursable Expenses. To date, only I think three of us have turned in the forms for
<br />reimbursable expenses. If you do want to, if you do want to do that, I wish you'd do it on a
<br />relatively timely basis, and those forms are right here.
<br />HERKES: Thank you. That's what we need is a form.
<br />RAY: Well, they were here at the last meeting, and I pointed it out at the last
<br />meeting. And so the most timely way to handle it is that if you fill it out today, then I can, you ,
<br />know, I -, one of -, myself or Roland need to sign the authorization, and then they can get turned
<br />in. So -, okay.
<br />I didn't include on here, that should have been in Unfinished Business, just the topic of general
<br />organization and scheduling and where we go from here, and I'd like to table that until after the
<br />presentations, so -, we already have a couple of people coming on that.
<br />And under New Business, (I think I'd like to defer the Communications/Public Relations piece, as
<br />well, to that discussion when we talk about, you know, where we go after this.
<br />So that moves us into, as Mr. Yuen comes in, New Business, B, Background Presentations on
<br />County Government and the County Charter. And I want to welcome Mr. Bethea and Mr. Yuen
<br />and Mr. L'Orange, who have all so graciously volunteered to come in and meet with us today and
<br />give us a'little background and answer any questions we might have in regard to the Charter
<br />review process, the County Charter, or County government in general. So, welcome. You folks
<br />want to come sit at the table? Hi, Bob.
<br />We'll keep this relatively informal. I think we invited you here today to, you know, give us any
<br />input, thoughts, help on, you know, initially, on getting organized, you know, the process, any
<br />processes you found, you know, helpful in terms of activities of the last Charter Commission.
<br />I'm -, personally, I'm particularly interested in any comments you might have about engaging the
<br />public, you know, just the whole subject of public input, you know, how to solicit public input,
<br />any thoughts you might have. But, you know, Bob do you want to lead off and -.
<br />BETHEA: Okay, I will. Can everybody hear me?
<br />RAY: Yeah.
