27 The majority of the Commission discussed the proposed contract presented by Mr.
28 Alexander, which they believed it did not reflect the consensus arrived by the majority of the
29 Commission at a previous meeting. The Commission expressed concern with the contents of
30 the contract, such as term and benefits. The Commission argued that according to the language
31 of the contract what was presented was a multi-year contract. Another concern that was raised
32 was the fact that Mr. Alexander is an independent contractor and the Commission questioned
33 whether it would be proper to award benefits to an independent contractor.
