NOTICE OF RETIREE HEALTH CARE INVESTMENT BOARD MEETING
The Royal Oak Retiree Health Care Investment Board will hold at 8:30a.m. on Friday July 10, 2020
On April 1, 2020, Governor Whitmer issued Executive Order 2020-33, which declared both a state of
emergency and a state of disaster across the State of Michigan due to the spread of the novel
coronavirus (COVID-19). COVID-19 is a new strain of coronavirus that had not been previously
identified in humans, can spread easily from person to person, and can result in serious illness or
death. To mitigate the spread of COVID-19, to protect the public health, and provide essential
protections to vulnerable Michiganders, it is crucial that all Michiganders take steps to limit in-person
contact. The critical mitigation measures include social distancing and limiting the number of people
interacting at public gatherings. Therefore, the July 10, 2020 Retiree Health Care Investment Board
Meeting will be held electronically, in compliance with the Open Meetings Act and Executive Order
2020-129, as issued by Governor Whitmer on June 18, 2020.
