Summary

Commissioners agreed a named commissioner will be the point person for an upcoming mediation scheduled Thursday and voted to move a cyber incident update into executive session.

Commissioners directed that one commissioner be the primary contact for settlement negotiations in advance of a mediation hearing scheduled for Thursday and clarified that any final decisions taken in mediation would be returned to the full board for ratification.
