Commissioner Hansen called the meeting to order and welcomed all in attendance.
First order of business was approval of the September 23, 1998 Decision Meeting Minutes.
Commissioner Hansen said they had circulated to the Commissioners and corrections had been made; therefore he made a motion to approve them; motion carried unanimously.
Next order of business was consideration of the two items on the Consent Agenda and the addition of Item 3A - Regulated Carrier Division Agenda dated October 13, 1998, to that Consent Agenda.
Commissioner Hansen called for questions?
Commissioner Nelson made a motion to approve all the items on the consent agenda; motion carried unanimously.
Under RULEMAKING, Item 4 was Beverly Barker/Cheri Copsey October 9, 1998 Decision Memorandum re: Proposed Amendments to Telephone Customer Relations Rules (Case No. 31-4101-9801).
Commissioner Hansen announced that that matter would be set for deliberation on Thursday, October 15, 1998 at 1:30 p.m. It will be a deliberation session but it will be open to the public. Commissioners want to go over the rules in-depth. Thought that would be the way to consider them rather than in a Decision Meeting format.
Meeting was then adjourned.
Dated at Boise, Idaho, this 14th day of October, 1998.
Myrna J. Walters
Commission Secretary
