WDFW July Commission Meeting

[Curly]

There is an upcoming commission meeting in July.  The agenda is listed on the WDFW website.  Written comments are due by June 25th.  I haven't had a chance to review the topics yet, but I urge everyone to take a look and see if there is anything you want to voice your opinion about and write a letter or attend the meeting and voice your opinions.

-Can we bring up a topic about replacing Dave Ware

[Curly]

Yes.  And I think there will be "broad public support" as well as broad support from WDFW staff as well.

Unless I am reading the schedule wrong the next commission meeting isn't until August 6-7. There is a conference call 6/18, 7/2 & 16. But no actual meeting until August 6 and 7. No public comments are taken during conference calls.

Here is the meeting schedule:

You are correct.  I didn't read the email they sent me very well.  It does say it will be a conference call and we can send written comments.  I should have read more slowly.

In that case, be sure to write to the commission because there won't be a meeting to voice your opinions.

Here is the letter WDFW sent out.
