Staff member said they would run a short trial to track staff time so the group could measure how much work email searches require.
The trial was described during a meeting exchange in which another participant asked, “Anything new from us?” The staff member replied, “I will go ahead and do that just on a trial basis. Just have staff tractor time so we can see. For the most part, most of these, the time's gonna be minimal. It's just gonna be the email searches that'll be the big thing.”
The statement was presented as an operational step by the staff member rather than a formal motion or vote; the transcript does not record any motion, second, or vote on time tracking or a related policy change. The staff member characterized most tasks as taking minimal time but identified email searches as the activity likely to consume the most staff hours.
No legal authorities, funding decisions, deadlines, or implementation details (such as which staff positions would record time or how long the trial will run) were specified in the recorded remarks. The exchange in the transcript is limited to the brief proposal to run a trial and the expectation that email searches will drive most of the additional time.
