How to Run A Meeting on 01/31/08
I like the bit about old business. When I was on city councils, it sometimes smelled like something the dog left. On one, we had a "consent agenda" and then new business, finishing with a question from the chair whether there was unfinished business. Another council I served on had old business-new business. In my experience, unfinished business could be business from the current meeting as well as something laid on the table six meetings back. In my experience, specific bodies have their own requirements and establish their own agenda forms. It doesn't matter what you call it as long as you take care of what you started doing in the past before you start a lot of new stuff.
