Commissioners weighed options to change the regular meeting date/time (currently first Wednesday at 6 p.m.) to accommodate scheduling conflicts. Preferences leaned toward keeping the first Wednesday but moving the start earlier (5:30 p.m.); staff will continue outreach and may implement changes for 2027 or 2028.

Several commissioners reported conflicts (work, youth sports) and expressed a preference for keeping the first Wednesday but moving the start time earlier to 5:30 p.m.
