Dwayne, Michael:<br><br>I feel confident that the RCAC chairs would very much like to meet with RPD, but I&#39;m concerned that the meeting date suggested by Chief Dolan may not work for folks due to its proximity to the holiday.  I know I can be there, but even if a handful of us attend, it&#39;s a far cry from representing the opinions and concerns of the 18 CAC districts.  Is there any flexibility as to when we can meet with Chief Dolan?  I&#39;d
like to ensure that as many interested RCAC representatives as possible
will be able to attend.<br><br>We have been frustrated that city-organized meetings that are billed specifically for RCAC chairs to attend are sometimes being scheduled without input from the RCAC regarding the group&#39;s availability (recent case-in-point: Planning&#39;s RCAC listening session on the UDO).  Dwayne (and Kristen), do you have any suggestions for pro-actively avoiding this issue in the future?<br>

<p class="MsoNormal"><font color="blue" face="Maiandra GD" size="3"><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: &quot;Maiandra GD&quot;; color: blue;">Police Dolan is
interested in meeting with the RCAC members or CAC designee to provide a
departmental update before the first of the year.  There are several
things on the horizon with the 5 year strategic plan, realignment, etc.  Chief
Dolan would like to brief the RCAC on these initiatives before it goes public
in early 2010. </span></font></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><font color="blue" face="Maiandra GD" size="3"><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: &quot;Maiandra GD&quot;; color: blue;">I will need a
reply by end of business on this Friday as to if you will be able to
attend.  The response of the group will dictate if the meeting will occur
or not.  I will tabulate the responses and notify the group of the decision. 
Thanks.</span></font></p>
