Therefore, the May 13th date is too late, but you have the ability to seek a City Council exception should you choose to do so. See attached form to return ASAP. As to missing the AAB meeting today, your absence will be noted in the Minutes as Excused since the purpose of your absence meets the excused criteria. Leanne is copied so that she can make sure the Minutes reflect the excused absence for the June 10 meeting. Rosa From Sent MIMIMI.U This message has originated from an External Source.

To: Rios, Rosa <Rosa.Rios@QityQfdQntQn,Qom> Subject: Airport Advisory Committee - Unexcused Absences I wanted to reach out regarding the last two meetings I have missed. Against my own wishes, I was unable to attend both meetings due to my grandfather. He is in the hospital and I have been the only available transportation for my family. Though I attempted to attend I was unable to. As of now, I’m unaware of where his condition will leave, but we are imagining the worst. Due to some more family support, I will not be missing any other meetings. iL44 B • ee @
