It's remarkable to note that only an hour-and-a-half has been scheduled for all six items.
TODAY'S STUDY SESSION IS A BIG DEAL WITH SIX IMPORTANT ITEMS ON THE AGENDA:. There's usually a presentation of some sorts 9usually involving a canned Power Point presentation, someone reading along from the prepared script - then there DISCUSSION on the agenda item. Every single one of the six items can involved hours to see the history and background and to understand what is going on .. .
Why the time may 'be ripe' for some of the actions to be taken - or delayed or more work needed - get involved.

FOUR ITEMS CAN IMPACT YOU:
> Hear a presentation, discuss, and provide direction on
a proposed sales tax initiative for public safety > Is that an INCREASE? ( or hidden 'adjustments ' in fees/charges?)
