Background and Analysis:
PBIA Chair Danielle Ruse was accepted into the Evergreen Master of Public Administration program, which starts in October. Unfortunately, her class meets on Thursday evenings so there is a conflict with PBIA meetings.
Chair Ruse broached the subject with the boardmembers at last month’s meeting and they seem amenable to changing the meeting night to the 2nd Wednesday of each month beginning in October.
At the time of this staff report, staff was in progress of gathering feedback from the Chair of General Government, PBIA Council Liaison and City Communications department as to whether there would be any conflicts with moving the date.
