The inaugural meeting of the new city commission will take place at City Hall, #6 East Sixth, on April 14, commencing at 5:45pm.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Below my close and name block you will find the relevant portion of the Lawrence City Commission agenda. I think it would be a very good idea for as many of us as possible to attend the meeting and to introduce ourselves to the commissioners during the reception which takes place during the brief 20 minute recess before the new commissioner orientation cession. This is a very good way of helping our chapter to be more visible at City Hall so the commissioners will recognize us when we pay a visit to the commission in the near future, whether it be for a weekly regular business meeting, a study session, or one-to-one sessions with a specific commissioner. Key city staff members will be on hand as well, and it will also be good for us to make their acquaintance.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>So let’s give this some very serious thought and I hope to see you there.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Best regards,<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Rob Tabor | president Jayhawk Chapter NFB of Kansas<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Forwarded message follows<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p>First on the agenda for April 14, Mayor Mike Amyx will present his 2015 State of the City Address. After the address, the City Commission will complete the transition process from the current City Commission to the swearing in of newly elected City Commissioners. A new Mayor will be selected as well as a new Vice-Mayor. After the new leadership roles are complete, the City Commissioners will provide their comments and then recess for 20 minutes for a brief reception at City Hall honoring current and newly elected officials.<o:p></o:p></p><p>After the recess, the City Attorney’s Office will provide the City Commission with an orientation session including information on the Kansas Open Meetings Act and other items for consideration by the elected officials.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Find the full agenda, and supporting materials, are online at <a href="http://www.lawrenceks.org/agendas">www.lawrenceks.org/agendas</a>.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>###<o:p></o:p></p></div></body></html>
