They said you weren't, just voicing your opinion. But the Minutes say that you were representing D7, so I'm sorry to say, that is what you were doing. A Motion was passed and the vote was recorded as unanimous.

The action item coming out of 7/12 was for me to produce the survey that I'm working on (hope to have it out tonight, waiting for a few more approvals) so that we can capture the feedback more completely.</span><br><div><span style="font-size:12.8px"><br></span></div><div><span style="font-size:12.8px">Peter+</span></div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Wed, Jul 19, 2017 at 3:39 PM, Frackowiak Tony <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:frackowiak@sbcglobal.net" target="_blank">frackowiak@sbcglobal.net</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div style="word-wrap:break-word"><span class="">Peter,<div><br></div><div>The Minutes, which are supposed to represent what was covered in the meeting, do not reflect what you just said.
