I meant to send an update on Mon night, but forgot. Here it is.
I did governance-only registration (free) for Atlanta meeting and will be attending the New Councilor orientation in person on the afternoon/evening of Sat Mar 21 (no remote option for that part and it was highly recommended by James Wollack). Then I'll fly back to MN on Sunday and attend the Council remotely in the morning of Wed Mar 25. ACS transmits $2000 to LS for both remote and in-person attendance of each councilor, so my ACS business-related travel would be reimbursed from that if LS allows (OKed by Andy in e-mail).
