During meetings, Element Review Advisory Committee members are expected to:
1. Turn cell phones and other communication items off.
2. Be courteous and listen while others are speaking. Treat others in the group the
way that you would like to be treated. Make an effort to understand each other's
position.
3. Address the facilitator and members of the ERAC, rather than the public, in a
manner that allows the group to hear your comments. Members shall speak one at
a time. If you have spoken once during a round of discussion, allow others to
contribute before providing additional input.
4. Build on collaboration and provide constructive feedback to the facilitator and
group. Keep an open mind and be interested in finding areas of understanding
and/or agreement.
5. Participate actively, review documents by agreed upon deadlines, and adhere to
the Comprehensive General Plan Update work program schedule established for
the committee.
6. Use the various tools to share information with and, as appropriate, request
feedback from your constituency group. A schedule of specific outreach activities
will be developed for the Advisory Committee during the regular meetings and
through communications with the facilitator.
Maintain a positive outlook. This, along with providing constructive feedback,
maintaining an open mind, and finding areas of understanding and agreement,
will help the facilitator to run the meetings with positive results.
