<div>Is a report to the board required if the co-chairs determine no consensus in last call?

</div>
<div>It seems to me that pre-determining that the proposal will be sent to the board, especially in light of the sustained and vigorous opposition to it is premature at best and shows clear disregard for the PDP.</div>
