  8. Basic Steps Community member submits a proposal Community discusses the proposal AC creates a draft policy Community discusses the draft policy (list, meeting, last call) AC determines consensus Board adopts Staff implements

  9. Petitions Anyone dissatisfied with a decision by the AC can petition in order to keep a proposal moving forward • Petition to bring proposal to list and meeting 4 successful* 3 unsuccessful • Last call petition (to send to Board) One – unsuccessful *3 ultimately abandoned, 1 adopted as policy

  10. How to monitor and not be overwhelmed? Once per month: Front page of the website leads to proposals and draft policies under discussion New proposals need feedback for the AC’s initial decision Web site can help you focus on what’s important to you and your company Twice per year: Check the ARIN Public Policy Meeting site in the weeks leading up to the meeting Proposals/Draft Policies on Agenda Discussion Guide (summaries, text, staff assessments) Attend in Person/Remote AC meeting last day: Watch list for AC’s decisions, Last Calls – State your opinion, are you For or Against?
