Call to order and roll call <br /> <br />II. Consideration of additions to the agenda <br /> <br />Karen Lincoln: We have several openings for board members and the last time we met we decided to send names to <br />the commissioners. I told you that the BOCC would appoint an OUTBoard member at the August 21 BOCC meeting. <br />I’ve been told that Commissioner Gordon had taken it off the agenda because she thinks she can get a transit <br />member. <br /> <br />Robert Peterson: I spoke with her after the last meeting and she thinks the person needs to be on the TCC or TTA. <br /> <br />Karen Lincoln: Another issue is that Jim Ray’s and Al Terry’s appointed terms expire at the end of the month. I <br />would like to get a recommendation from this board to reappoint them. <br /> <br />Jim Ray: I think I need to come off the board now. I have a lot of things going on now. <br /> <br />Karen Lincoln: I’m sure Al is willing to serve again. The Board can endorse Al and authorize Robert to sign the letter <br />of recommendation. Al is at a conference this week. <br /> <br />Robert Peterson: At some point we need to discuss filling these other vacancies. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />III. Board Comments <br /> <br />Karen Lincoln: I sent a copy of the revised schedule for the Comprehensive Plan Update and on October 16, there <br />will be an Element Lead Advisory Board meeting. <br /> <br />IV. Approval of Minutes of August 15 meeting <br /> <br />It was noted that several people listed in the minutes as being absent at the last meeting (Commissioner Gordon, <br />Nancy Baker and Bryn Smith) had attended the meeting and the minutes listed James Ray in attendance when he <br />was absent. Also, Mike Stanley, TIP Central Region Manager with NCDOT Program Development Branch TIP <br />Development Unit, was not listed present. <br /> <br />Sam Lasris: Can I get a copy of the presentation by Mike Stanley? <br /> <br />Karen Lincoln: Sure, I brought copies for those who couldn’t attend the last meeting.
