1. CALL TO ORDER:

Dear Members

Thank you to those members who raised concerns about and those who support SIPOA's recent letter to the Islands Trust regarding their proposed 2011-12 budget. It is always healthy to have respectful debate in an organization and also to have a discussion on these kinds of things because it helps to clarify issues and points of view. And, friendly dissent is a good thing.
