Chair Steve Mason ends committee meeting after lack of quorum

Chair Steve Mason ended a scheduled committee meeting on April 20, 2026, after a roll call showed no quorum, preventing the group from taking any formal actions.

Steve Mason opened the session by identifying himself and noting the meeting's public posting: "Hello, my name is Steve Mason," and "Notice that this meeting was properly posted on April 20, 2026." He read the committee's working definition of "action," saying it would include activities such as amending, approving (or approving as amended), deferring, denying, referring items to another body, and receiving documents or presentations.

Mason asked staff to take a roll call. Cassie conducted the roll call and read members' names. Cassie said that a quorum was not present: "No, we do not have a quorum for this meeting," and advised that "Because there is not a quorum, we are unable to hold this meeting."

With no quorum established, the chair and staff agreed the meeting could not proceed and the session was closed without any motions or votes. No items on the published agenda were considered or decided.

The meeting was adjourned; the transcript does not specify a rescheduled date or next steps for the committee.
