The Board meetings could provide a forum for educating and involving students in telecommunications issues. Assistant City Attorney Kraig 1 Ecton will review by-laws to determine if this is something that can be done without Council approval. Other Business Herb announced that a Fort Collins High School student, Kat Shackelford, had agreed to work with the Board to do some market research on local telecommunications service providers. She will attend the December Board meeting so members can provide some clarity on the type of research they would like to have. Adjournment Robert made a motion to adjourn, seconded by Chip.
