Should the CBOC Turn Over Their Responsibilities of Setting Their Own Agenda and Preparing their Own Minutes?

Exactly the opposite – CABOC recommends that each CBOC prepare its own agendas for its meetings – scheduled as the CBOC shall determine – and have responsibility for its meeting minutes.

Of course, each CBOC should work with its district and particularly facilities staff in determining what should be on the agenda for each meeting and ensuring that district staff will be able to meet the CBOC’s desires.

Also, many CBOCs have district staff take the minutes and prepare the first draft of the minutes, with the designated CBOC secretary reviewing and, as required, modifying the proposed minutes before the draft minutes are distributed in the agenda package for the next meeting.
