The Commission also establishes its expectations for the <br />orientation of new commission members. <br /> <br />As stated in the policy, “The ERMU Commission is committed to excellent governance. This <br />requires that individual Commissioners be well-informed about ERMU, its customers and <br />stakeholders, the utility business, prudent financial management, and the Commission’s own <br />governance structure and processes.” Consistent with this commitment and commission <br />policies, an annual orientation program for new and existing commission members was <br />implemented in 2018. <br /> <br />This year’s annual orientation will offer a respectful workplace training prior to the meeting as <br />well as a review of the Commission Policy manual and reference guide updates from the <br />previous year. <br /> <br />COMMISSIONER ORIENTATION AGENDA: <br />1.
