[Lnc-business] Chair's Proposed Agenda - LNC Meeting April 15-16, 2017 in Pittsburgh, PA

[Caryn Ann Harlos]

Nick I thought I sent something earlier but it never got sent - but is it
possible to add

*Lapsed member and renewal recruitment (10 minutes)*

Also platform and Bylaws committee appointments but I am concerned about
time and I have a procedural question - how are discussions on applicants
conducted?  I had taken the opportunity to interview candidates about
information not on the application - essential things like length of
involvement in Party and familiarity with our documents over time  - and
wanted to know when this information could be raised. I believe making
recommendations on changes to our governing documents is extremely serious
and requires a certain level of prior knowledge or involvement - certainly
more than just months in the Party for one thing.

We must have adequate time to do that process.  And I have to say - I
learned much during my vetting process that was completely opaque to our
application - if LNC members are not doing independent inquiries I do not
see how we make educated choices unless we already know the applicants or
they come with recommendations from persons with judgment we trust.

Dear All,



Attached is a proposed agenda for our upcoming LNC meeting.  If I

missed anyone's agenda request, please email me.



We have a relatively short meeting compared to our budget meeting (505

minutes vs. 750 minutes). My hope is that will avoid staying late into

the evening on Saturday and allow everyone the opportunity to adjourn

reasonably early on Easter.



If there are early services on Sunday that people wish to attend in

Pittsburgh, we may be able to amend the agenda to have a later morning

start time and still finish by lunch or shortly thereafter, but I

didn't want to assume that at this point.



Yours in liberty,

Nick
