All meetings of the board are "regular" or "special" meetings as those designations are applied in chapter 42.30 RCW. Meetings may be called, subject to the notice requirements of chapter 42.30 RCW, at any time and place by the chair or by a majority of the commissioners.

(2) Notice. Twenty calendar days' notice of all meetings shall be given by posting on the commission's website notification of the date, time and location of the meeting, and by mailing or emailing the same to each commissioner and to any person who has made a written request to the commission to receive meeting notices.
