ReplyDeleteAnd let me just say and Biard meetings
ReplyDeleteLast forever and they Jam Pack them with way too much stuff and this town meeting light go on for days. Yikes. It’s hard for me to sit through a live Board meeting. Even to sit through old board meetings to know what’s happening. You lose people after a time. I think it’s crazy. Maybe they need to figure out a new strategy. Diane
