LWVW Board
meetings
LWVWestport Board meetings are open to all
members. We are always delighted to welcome
guests. We just ask that you simply observe
the discussion and not join in. Non-board
members are sometimes invited to speak on a
specific agenda item on which they have
special knowledge or expertise. If they
choose to stay for the balance of the
meeting, the same guidelines apply. |
