EXECUTIVE SESSION AS NEEDED
ADJOURNMENT
*All agenda items are for consideration and are not final until voted on by the CAC.
**Privilege of the Floor is the time to address the CAC, and is a privilege – not a right – and
while we realize that residents are sometimes passionate about an issue, we insist that the tone
and content of your remarks be civil and respectful. If these guidelines are not adhered to, you
will be asked to sit down and remain silent. Once the meeting moves past Privilege of the Floor,
we are still interested in what you have to say, but please be aware that your comments or
questions during this part of the meeting can be entertained only if time permits. Please wait to
be recognized by the Chair before speaking. If you wish to comment or ask a question during the
regular part of our meeting, we ask that your comments pertain to the subject at hand, and
again we insist that they be civil and respectful.
