Summary

The Richland County Community and Health & Service committee voted on March 5 to move the April meeting start time to 11:00 a.m. as a one-month trial; members cited scheduling conflicts with staff and presenters and asked staff to check the availability of a scheduled guest speaker.

Members of the Richland County Community and Health and Service standing committee voted on March 5 to change the start time of the April meeting to 11:00 a.m. as a one-month trial.

Committee members raised competing preferences: some preferred a later start time to avoid morning conflicts, while others noted the approaching election and potential committee reassignments that could make longer-term scheduling premature. A member moved to try an 11 a.m. start for April; Mary seconded the motion. The committee approved the change by voice vote and the chair said he would break a tie where needed. Staff were asked to confirm whether a scheduled guest presenter, Joe Larson, who would be driving from La Crosse, could accommodate the new time.

The change applies to the April meeting only as a trial; the committee said it will reassess the time after the next meeting and after any post-election committee reassignments.
