5. Meeting length may not exceed two (2) hours, unless mutually agreed upon.
6. There are to be no “votes”, issues decided by 100% consensus only.
7. Confidentiality of information shared at meetings is imperative to maintaining trust amongst CNC members, however, if by consensus a subject needs to be polled among peers – this may be done. To further promote trust, all new information will be shared in a timely manner with all CNC members.
8. Outside guests may be brought in for resource purposes (i.e. insurance information), by special invitation and CNC consensus only.
9. A list of potential issues will be established at the beginning of each new school/negotiation year.
