Maker of Motion:  Al S. – HRP-1
Seconded By:  Jim L. – COASCNA RCM
 

Motion:  For the Ohio Region to withdraw from its participation in the
Midwest Zonal Forum.
 

Intent:  Our participation in the forum has been time-consuming for the Trusted Servants delegated to attend and financially tapping the RSC for little information that doesn’t effect the function of our present service structure.  Our need for participation does not help us carry out our primary purpose.
Pro:  Large financial savings vs. small amount of information given.
Con:  We should stay and be part of the growth and change of the MZF.
Vote:  Back to Areas
