IX. PUBLIC COMMENTS
Don Roberts expressed concerns that meetings were advertised and when attempting to
attend the advertised meeting he would find a sign on the door that the meeting was
cancelled. Judy Nielsen, Borough Clerk stated that posting a sign of cancellation was
sufficient when it was determined that a quorum would not be present.
The Mental Health Center staff recognize that this is inconvenient and will try to utilize
public service announcements in order to notify the public of a cancelled meeting. Quite
often, however, often we will not know if a quorum will be available or not until late in the
afternoon the day of the meeting.
IX. BOARD COMMENTS
The Advisory Board welcomed the new members and thanked Judy Nielsen for her
presentation.
XI. ADJOURNMENT

room of ~e Providence Kodiak Island Mental Health Center.
