meetings. how does the calendar look for next week? >> we have two cases. president marshall: and they will be at the top of the calendar? alright. i don't want to get my wednesday's mixed up again. commissioners, and the thing -- anything? >> i have a question. in the past, the third meeting of the month was the meeting where you had a number of reports schedules, including quarterly reports from the occ, a number of other reports. a question to you would be to whether you want to consider having those reports on a different calendar than the

third wednesday? because it would require many of us to be here through your hearing and in case you want to pull them off of the consent calendar. president marshall: that is a very good point. what are those items? >> those are the quarterly reports, the quarterly update of the general orders, bulletins issued. and also the list of closed session disciplinary actions. those are the main matters that come forward in the quarterly reports.

putting those on the consent calendar, it becomes a routine item. unless the commissioner has something they want to sever for discussion, there is the point that staff would have to be here in order to be prepared for that. if we leave that until after the hearing -- president marshall: that was my thought. we can move it to another date. >> what about the second week of the month? the third is disciplinary and forth is community meetings. would that work? >> the second meeting of the month will not work for the quarterly reports unless we push it to the next month. in other words, rather than giving you the quarterly report for the third quarter, the

second week of october, i could give it to you the second week of november. >> it becomes a month older at that point. >> but we have to crunch the numbers. we need the time. >> i support director hicks. >> if there is no commissioner wishing for a separate matter of discussion, another option is to take them up at the beginning in the deal with it, moving on into the hearing. the becomes a familiar now. as the commission has observed, they are very well done. we did have this issue several years ago when we were establishing this protocol, we identified the third meeting of the month.

in our effort to dispose of disciplinary cases, we zeroed in on the third meeting of the month. president marshall: could we try next week and see? >> what i was going to inquire, do we have a case set for next week? ? we have two. >> are they locked in? there's no live hearing. >> the transcripts, the commissioners have had them. i believe the exhibits were all distributed. these are both up for decision.

>> today is the twenty -- >> today is the thirteenth. >> wow. i take it that is not going to happen? >> we had a couple of matters that were heard by individual commissioners, and they asked to have that matter come forward on this date. we are not taking any evidence. we thought we could get both of these in front of the commission on the same night. >> we said that publicly, to have a live hearing, the cases that we have pending before us -- >> there will be one in november. >> commissioner, we had to make

a scheduling decision. there's a lot that goes into getting a hearing in front of the commission. we thought that the time was best served -- and we will get into that later this evening. commissioner kingsley: in terms of this month, next week seems to be relatively light, why don't we proceed as we have before and let director hicks presenter reports and do our cases? >> the other proposal i would make is that rather than the second wednesday of the month, the first wednesday of the month following quarter. that would be another

possibility rather than gambling with of the third wednesday. we will be ready next week. >> in the future, you prefer on the first week? that sounds good to me. the first week of the month to include an occ report. does that make sense? in the future, we could do it that way. president marshall: i see you squinting, lieutenant. >> i have something in my eye, commissioner. [laughter] president marshall: all right then. any public comment on item number 5?

item number six. >> this is public comment on all matters pertaining to a closed session. president marshall: any public comment on the matter of closed sessions? hearing none, item number 7. >> a vote on whether to hold a closed session. >> so moved. president marshall: we will remain here in this room. >> ladies and gentlemen, please vacate the premises.
