We are okay to get rid of the wording “Beginning on the fifth anniversary of the day on which the Council is incorporated”. However, we ask that we continue with “to the extent possible”.
We've given a number of seats out for other people to fill. If one of those people should resign or if there are some kinds of difficulties, we wouldn't want to delay the start of the council to have everyone picked right away. We believe that if we keep “to the extent possible”, we allow the committee to start the valuable work that they need to do without having to worry about any delays from not having full representation from all of the different folks that we've given seats to—if that's agreeable.
