no thought it went pretty well.

s
Sena
ator Petrillo fin
nds it distractiing when peop
ple have side conversations
s during the m
meetings, inclu
uding joking a
around.
Think
ks it is unproffessional and something
s
sh
hould be done about it. It is also simply d
disrespectful tto speak while
e another is
speak
king. Feels there needs to be
b something done about th
his, and there
e should be so
ome kind of rep
epercussion.
Trusttee Watkins ag
grees that sid

s that sometim
