*   Will your committee be meeting BEFORE December 4th via ZOOM?
    *   If yes, do you want the Section to schedule your ZOOM meeting in conjunction with other RPPTL published ZOOM Meetings (typically 1 or 2 weeks before the EC meeting)? or
    *   Will you be making those ZOOM arrangements yourself and holding your meeting at a different time?


 *   If your committee will not be meeting before December 4th, do you intend to hold a meeting in conjunction with (ie: during the same few day period) the Executive Council meetings?
    *   If yes, will your committee be:
       *   Meeting in person with ZOOM capability (note: if so, you need to arrange to have a committee member available to assist with moderating); or
       *   Meeting in person without ZOOM?  (note: if meeting in person, without ZOOM, you will also likely NOT have a screen/projector)


 *   Are you planning to include a speaker (other than typical sub-committee or project reports) and offer CLE?


 *   Do you have any other special requests or require any other services for committee members during your meeting (adaptive equipment, etc.)?


 *   HOW MUCH TIME DO YOU ANTICIPATE YOUR MEETING WILL REQUIRE?  Please base this in reality, according to your agenda.  If you only have 30 minutes of material for this meeting, that is okay (from time to time) – please don’t create busy work.  But space (time and member bandwidth) is always limited.  Consider requesting ONLY 30 minutes for your meeting if that is all the time you need; or consider holding a ZOOM meeting only, at a different time.  PLEASE respect the time of your committee members.  While ending your meeting early may sound like it will be received favorably, that is time that another committee needed to address an important issue, or your colleague could have used to answer a client e-mail or return a call from their family member.

 *   99 year leases – many condos and other developments were built in the 60’s on property subject to 99 year leases.  What happens as these leases are nearing termination, the condo property is owned by a trust or an estate and are no longer marketable; etc. (similar to the MRTA termination issue);
 *   Public Record Redaction – There are @20 categories of positions (judges, judicial assistants, police officers, etc.) whose identities are now redacted from documents recorded among the public records. This causes problems for title underwriters, but what happens when these people die?  How do we locate or otherwise identify decedents’ assets for inventory or other purposes?  Tracing ownership for homestead purposes?
 *   Document impounding – Currently being tested in Ft. Meyers, court clerks are impounding or holding documents submitted for recording under suspicion that they are fraudulent (holding up closings and potentially causing issues for those attempting to establish homestead, distributing property from a trust or requiring timely conveyance for tax or other reasons.
