Being a part of the commission requires a significant commitment of time and effort. It was quite embarrassing to have two groups waiting to present information the commission last meeting while only two members were on time and a quorum was barely reached by 45 minutes after the meeting should have started. I realize we are all busy people, and it is for that reason specifically that we must arrive in a timely manner.I do not have the time to wait 45 minutes to be able to start a meeting and neither did the other commissioners that were on time. It appears to me that there is a general lack of interest and enthusiasm on the part of many commissioners. Perhaps this is a result of my not providing proper leadership, or*perhaps it is a result of our not having updated our projects to keep up with the desires and interests of the commissioners. I believe that we need to reprioritize and brainstorm ideas in an attempt to generate more interest in our projects, by the commission. Rather than trying to set up a special meeting for this, we will try to do this at our next regular meeting on Oct. 12 at 10:00 am. Please mark this on your calendar and plan to stay until around 2:00 PM if necessary. This meeting will be at the senior Center and lunch will be served. Please let Becky know any subject areas which you would like to discuss by the 5th, and whether you will be able to attend. This is.a very important meeting that will set the tone for the future of the commission so please try to attend and be on time. 500 West Markham, Room 108 Little Rock, AR 72201 371-4770 OCT- 4-93 MON 7:64 LR PARKS & REC FAX NO. 5013716832 CITY OF LITTLE ROCK PARKS AND RECREATION DEPARTMENT FAX NUMBER: (501) 371-6832 DATE; Q 3 TO: FAX#: 3 y D TOTAL NUMBER OF PAGES (Including Cover Sheet) IF YOU DO NOT RECEIVE ALL THE PAGES OR IF YOU HAVE ANY TROUBLE CONTACT ,AT (501) 371-
