Hi Janelle,
I've copied the scheduling email box, Skyler, and Leila here. I believe Skyler Zunk sent a form over on Monday.
Once we have the completed form returned to us we can run this request through our ethics and general law department, and then work to schedule something with the Secretary.
Thanks, Sam
