Discussion on the proper procedure for setting agenda items. The Action Committee discussed whether they want to set the upcoming agenda at the current meeting or have a designated time period in between meetings for additions to the agenda. The Action Committee determined that it's important to have time to review the minutes from the previous meeting and then make recommendations to the upcoming agenda.

This leaves one week for the Action Committee to review the minutes and suggest any additions to the agenda prior to the date the agenda needs to be posted. The Action Committee agreed that this schedule will work. 2. Reassign Action Committee members to subcommittees.
