Motion made by Rick Leichtweis; second by Dana Jones; all members agree, motion carries. Second, having established that each member’s voice may be heard by every other member, we must next establish the nature of the emergency that compels these emergency procedures, the fact that we are meeting electronically, what type of electronic communication is being used, and how we have arranged for public access to this meeting. State of Emergency caused by the COVID-19 pandemic makes it unsafe for this CPMT to physically assemble and unsafe for the public to physically attend any such meeting, and that as such, FOIA’s usual procedures, which require the physical assembly of this CPMT and the physical presence of the public, cannot be implemented safely or practically. I further move that this CPMT may conduct this meeting electronically through a dedicated auto conferencing line, and that the public may access this meeting by calling: 571-429- 5982; participant access code: 770 761 699\# . It is so moved. Motion made by Rick Leichtweis; seconded by Lesley Abashian; all members agree, motion carries.
