After a brief discussion it was decided that Tuesday, Wednesday, or Thursday between 10-1  was ideal for most civil service employees.

Old Business:  

1. Professional Development money.  Our Professional Development fund proposal could be approved immediately for open range employees or the proposal can be negotiated with the unions.  The development fund only needs to be negotiated into each union contract in order to be approved.
