 Audio If you'd like to listen to the entire meeting, the link below will allow you to do so. Please note the following:

 All Board meetings are monitored for (a) comments that are both easily misinterpreted and insignificant; (b) comments that may compromise the privacy of people who are not Board or Staff members. These comments are then removed. This meeting contains three such removals, totaling 23 seconds. You can follow along more easily if you have the same attachments in front of you that the Board members had. The attachments are provided below.
