This looks sort of like an early version of the minutes from the B.O.S meeting I like it.

Fred Kenyon Just what does the TMC Traffic management Committee do? Their last posted agenda was July 19 2016. There is supposed to be a meeting Aug 3 but it is not published anywhere and their web page is out dated. I hear at many BOS meetings that we will turn it over to the TMC.
