Now turning to our business items for today's meeting. The first agenda item is our 2025 PHWA meeting schedule. Will staff please 01:04:06
prevent the reports? 01:04:11
Thank you. Yes. So the one business item today is setting our 2025 PHWA meeting schedule. It's good practice to do that prior to 01:04:17
the start of the new year and to set a meeting calendar for the year so that the public can be aware of meeting dates, regular 01:04:25
meeting dates and to aid in transparency. 01:04:33
We prepared a proposed meeting schedule that's included. 01:04:42
With the agenda item as the attachment are yes as attachment. 01:04:47
We propose continuing to meet on the third Mondays of every month at 4:00 PM, with a couple of exceptions, January and February. 01:04:54
The third Mondays are holidays, so we would propose meeting right before the council meetings, which also on holiday dates move 01:05:02
from Monday to Tuesday. So those are Tuesday, January 21st and Tuesday, February 18th. 01:05:11
Every other meeting is the third Monday of the month, and then there's one month that we propose. 01:05:20
Having no meeting, which is August and that's also reflected in the schedule. That is because I. 01:05:25
That is the same day as a council meeting that we are also. 01:05:33
Not holding because of the for a summer recess. So we're recommending having a PHWA on the summer recess on that same Monday. 01:05:38
And so again, third Monday of every month with the exceptions being the holidays on moving it to Tuesday on January 21st and 01:05:48
February 18th and no August meeting. But other than that third Monday of every month. We recommend adopting that schedule, but the 01:05:56
Board has the opportunity to review and provide any modifications or approve the schedule. 01:06:04
And we can answer any questions. 01:06:14
Anybody have any questions? 01:06:17
Are there any public comments regarding this item? No public comments. 01:06:22
The recommendations to approve the proposed 2025 PHWA meeting schedule may have a motion and a second. 01:06:26
Motion to approve this, then the schedule second. 01:06:33
Madam Clerk, can you please take a vote? All in favor? Aye, All opposed. Hearing none. Motion passes unanimously. 01:06:37
Now turning to agency members reports, comments, and requests for future agenda items. I'd like to remind agency members that all 01:06:48
requested items will be will require a motion, a second, and a majority vote to be placed on a future agenda. Does anyone have any 01:06:54
reports, comments, or requests for future agenda items? I have a comment. 01:07:00
So as we know, elections results have been certified and one of the the winners of the AWA election for the board of. 01:07:08
The board for AWA is Rachel Jones. I don't know if anybody's had a chance to meet her. 01:07:20
But she replaced Sheldon Berger, who had been on the board for, I don't know, 40. 01:07:25
42 years and I'm looking forward to having Rachel. I hope she'll come and introduce herself. She is a resident of Port Hueneme and 01:07:33
it was quite a campaign she she led and I'm happy to see her on the board now, one of our residents. 01:07:41
Thank you. Any further comments? Request for future agenda items? 01:07:50
OK, hearing none. The next regular meeting is scheduled for Tuesday, January 21st, 2025 at 4:00 PM. I'd like to adjourn the 01:07:58
meeting now. The time is now 4:06 PM. 01:08:04
