What must the board members do during the meeting following a stay request?

Board members are required to make a final decision on the suspension during the meeting following a stay request. This ensures that the concerns raised in the stay request are addressed in a timely manner and provides a clear resolution to any pending issues related to the suspension. The decision-making process in such meetings is typically focused on the specific matters at hand, such as evaluating the validity of the suspension and considering any evidence or arguments presented.

This focus on making a final decision is critical for maintaining order and ensuring accountability within the board's operations. It allows for efficient management of board business and ensures that all parties involved have the opportunity to understand the outcome of the stay request without unnecessary delays. Other options such as discussing unrelated business or voting on minute details that do not pertain to the stay request would detract from the primary purpose of the meeting and could lead to a lack of clarity regarding the board's decisions.
