Let me <br />see if I can clarify. VVe thought that John Stewart had been reappointed to the Board last fall, so when we <br />noticed that we did not have anything in our records I asked Janine to work with your office to get that figured <br />out - we would very much like for John to remain on the Board during this transition period. Then last night we <br />did discuss two new vacancies on the Board (one from Person; one from Chatham) and the Commissioners <br />agreed that given OPC's situation we would not aggressively attempt to recruit new Board members, but would <br />try to retain those already serving. So, short answer we would like John reappointed, but we would not be <br />pursuing applicants for any other open seat. Hope that this helps, Judy <br />Judy R.

Yuhasz stated that at last night's meeting, you had mentioned <br />that since OPC was going to be disbanded in 2012, not to make any further appts to this board. <br />Is that correct because if you see the email traffic below -Janine would still like for us to make this appt. <br />Could you please provide some clarification to me on this issue? <br />Thanks, <br />Donna S.
