Open Forum - Held after adjournment

Many thanks to Bev Houston for providing meeting facts.
 
NOTES:  (1) STILL no open forum as part of the meeting agenda I see.  Unless the open forum is on the agenda and is conducted and recorded as part of the official BOD meeting it is a frivolous waste of time. 
(2) STILL no updated Rules & Regulations.  The U.S. constitution was written and approved in less time.  LET’S GET ON WITH IT FOLKS!

All corrections and comments would be appreciated
