He said some Commissioners <br /> 41 have signed on individually, but he would like to discuss a collective board endorsement. <br /> 42 Chair Price asked if that discussion should be open to public comment. <br /> 43 Commissioner Dorosin said the letter asked the Board to sign on collectively, so he <br /> 44 recommends the Board voting on it as it would with any similar request. <br /> 45 Chair Price said Commissioner McKee wants to add a discussion about the Alcoholic <br /> 46 Beverage Control Board. She said there will also be an addition on the process for filling <br /> 47 Commissioner Dorosin's vacancy on the BOCC. <br /> 48 Commissioner Hamilton asked if the Board has to vote to approve the changes to the <br /> 49 agenda. <br /> 50 Chair Price said yes, and the Board will also decide when to address the items. <br /> 51 <br />
