Good point about considering various scenarios in order to pick the best solution to follow through with. This board was only willing to vote on option A or option B: To close or to stay open. For this very reason, the decision was too abrupt. In other organizations that I have either experienced or studied, the closing of the organization is not just decided in one meeting. Rather, the organization takes a look at various options that could be implemented instead of closing. If they are devoted to the community, they really owe it to the public to explore all of their options before removing the programming entirely.
