THERE IS A SCHEDULE THAT IS BEING FINALIZED TO WHERE, UM, PC WILL PROVIDE INPUT.
I WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT IT WAS MARKED FOR ACTION AND NOT JUST A PRESENTATION.
I'M SORRY FOR DISCUSSION AND ACTION.
CAN WE, CAN THAT BE FACILITATED DURING THAT TIME? SO, UM, KIND OF THE PRACTICE OF THE COMMISSION IS WE'LL HAVE A BRIEFING, UM, THEN WE'LL ALLOW TIME FOR THE WORKING GROUP TO FORMULATE AMENDMENTS AND THEN WE'LL, UM, BRING THE ACTION BACK FOR FULL PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION.
SO, UM, BUT THERE W OF COURSE WE CAN ASK QUESTIONS DURING THAT MEETING, BUT ANY ACTIONS ON THE PART OF THE COMMISSION WILL COME LATER AFTER THE BRIEFING, CORRECT.
