As the meeting continued, members were encouraged to share any additional comments or suggestions regarding the minutes and the overall agenda. The board's focus remained on ensuring that all members were adequately informed and prepared for the discussions ahead.

In conclusion, the meeting underscored the board's dedication to improving its operational procedures, particularly in terms of documentation and communication. The next steps will involve addressing the concerns raised about the agenda materials and ensuring that future meetings are supported by comprehensive documentation.
