Reports of Board Members
Discussion:
Christopher Rogers updated the board that the NCKSEC Local Assessments was approved at their last board meeting. It was an agenda item that was highly discussed and scrutinized, but in the end, had almost a unanimous vote in favor. The process to rebuild the reserves will take a couple of years, but this should get the process started on the right foot.
