Chapter Updates Via Monthly PC Meetings
In preparation for each monthly meeting, our consultant from the Windam Regional Commission, Matt Bachler, provides a summary of possible changes to be discussed by the PC at the next upcoming meeting. After the meeting, based on the discussion, Matt prepares revisions in a red-lined copy of the chapter. These revisions are then discussed, altered and accepted at the next meeting. Below, we will post the applicable documents for upcoming meetings as well as copies of all documents from past meetings.
