I was on a council of 17 that went to 7. It was much more efficient. I'm finding that when we have agenda debates with everybody on the committee, it just takes too long, and we end up with the same solution. I have members on this committee who aren't part of the steering committee. I'd rather have them doing more high-value work than sitting around here.
