Subject: Revised CAG charter & 4/26 RSVPs still needed!

Dear CAG members,

Please see the attached newly revised version of the draft CAG charter. Based on comments received, the Operating Procedures Committee has sharpened the focus on how the CAG will function, and has clarified certain sections that may have been unclear. They will answer any questions about the changes at next Tuesday’s CAG meeting.

If you have not yet RSVP’d to me about your attendance at next Tuesday’s CAG meeting (6:30 at Metrotech), please do so ASAP.

NOTE: You are welcome to arrive on 4/26 any time after 5:30 pm for informal discussion with members of the Operating Procedures Committee about the charter. There will be light snacks and beverages.

It is my hope that we can have a good discussion about the charter for the first hour (6:30 – 7:30), resulting in a clear decision about moving forward, and be able to spend the second hour of the meeting discussing the important work that is happening in the various committees.

Please also mark your calendars for the May CAG meeting – Tuesday, May 31, 6:30 p.m. Topic: Christos Tsiamis will discuss the Feasibility Study getting underway.

--Jeff
