Council Member Holden raises concerns about discrepancies on the Veterans Advisory Board (VAB) website, including outdated information and conflicting details about the number of board members. He questions who is responsible for updating the website and why recent meeting minutes are not available.

  • The VAB bylaws state there should be 11 members, but the website claims 13 while only listing 11.
  • The website lacks minutes from 2024 VAB meetings.
  • Holden asks who is in charge of updating the website.

Just some housekeeping because we you know, we looked at the the website and there, you know, the, the bylaws of the Veterans Advisory Board state that there should be 11 members.

Yet, you know, your website claims there are 13, but it only lists 11, one of whom has already resigned.

So just in the in the general you know, as we check the website, it's not updated.

There's no, minutes from the 24 from 2024, any of the meetings, the Veterans Advisory Board.
0:19:22
