Committee staff introduced and subcommittee process explained; packets distributed

Agriculture, Natural Resources and Environmental Affairs · December 4, 2024

Summary

Committee staff Dustin Stimson and Ellie Hayes were introduced and the chair distributed packets with contact and subcommittee preference forms, urging members to participate in subcommittees where much of the committee's work is done.

Committee staff and operational procedures were introduced during the organizing meeting. Chair Hixson introduced Dustin Stimson and Ellie Hayes as staff resources and asked members to complete subcommittee preference forms in the packet placed before them.

Hixson emphasized that the "rubber meets the road in the subcommittee meetings," encouraging members to attend those sessions even if they are not listed on a particular subcommittee. He told members the packet contains contact information and a place to indicate three subcommittee choices; staff will use that input to assign members to wildlife, agricultural and environmental subcommittees.

Committee staff identified themselves and offered support for members working across the panel. The chair reminded members that subcommittee meetings are where detailed questions are often answered and that participation helps expedite full committee deliberations.
