I would like to suggest you consider a plan for notification, especially for end-users with the largest increases. Maybe something like the following;<br class="">
<br class="">
1. A note with everyone's 2021 Invoice calling attention to how the 2022 fee scheduled changes will impact them.<br class="">
2. A registered letter to any Organization with an increase above a certain threshold, maybe $2,000.<br class="">
3. Further, direct staff contact with any Organization with an increase above an even larger threshold, maybe $10,000.</div>

I disagree… I think it is worth making sure they are aware in time to comment for the board’s consideration.</div>

<div>ARIN frequently engages in community consultation before making significant changes to fees or services – such consultations are announced on the arin-announce mailing list and conducted on this list (arin-consult). These consultations are open to anyone
in the community that wish to participate, but it does require organizations that wish to be part make a modicum of effort to read the ARIN announcements of consultations and participate in those consultations that are of interest to them. </div>
