RE: Election Review Committee will present findings to commissioners June 13

["Burrus, James" <jburrus@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Neal, et.al.

    The report is available on the home page of the county's Web site as a .pdf file. There will be several hard copies available at tonight's meeting. The public will be allowed to speak, but no action will be taken by the commissioners. The commissioners are merely accepting the final report. Any action that is taken by the commissioners in relation to the report will be done with input by the public at a public hearing, if not several public hearings.
    Because the report is being presented to the commissioners tonight, copies of the report were not made public until today. 
    If you have any other questions, please let me know.

Thanks for forwarding the notice, Paul.

Others should note that there was also an article in the Daily Camera
last Saturday.

Paul or Jim: 
How can we get a copy of the report, before the meeting?
Will there be a public hearing on the report at this meeting?
Will there be a public hearing on the report at a future meeting of
either the Commissioners or the ERC?
