Slog - Comments on Mayor's Policing Panel Meets http://slog.thestranger.com/2007/07/mayors_policing_panel_meets Tonight, the Mayor's police accountability task force held their first meeting in the Bertha Knight Landes room at City Hall.

present: a woman whose name I forgot (far left, wearing a sportcoat), Jennifer Shaw, Lorena
Gonzalez, Gary Locke, Terry Carroll, and three men, one of whom

Was there a sign-up sheet for those who would like to
be kept in the loop?

There was no sign up sheet. Maybe the Mayor'll put out a press release next time.

Did they cite a specific public meeting exemption?

Did anyone else catch that?
