Request the following information. 
 
Guidance, law or policy related to allowing a common citizen to be added to the Louisiana Restore Task Force Meeting agenda. 
If a person has a solution and typical congressional channels fail how can a solution reach the task force agenda?

I have read the Executive order regarding the task force must create a mechanism to allow for public input. I have emailed and called task force members with no success to how I can be added to the agenda. 

Here is the reference in the Executive order. 
I need to find the actual "Mechanism" to which this passage references. 
 
Executive Order JBE-2016-65
  • Section 2: The duties of the Task Force include, but are not limited to, the following:
    • A. The Task Force shall establish both short and long-term priorities in developing plans for recovery and redevelopment. Such priorities and plans shall draw upon traditional state resources and programs and create special programs dedicated to responding to the aftermath of the flooding. Such priorities and plans shall include timelines and benchmark goals. There must be a mechanism for public input and the opportunity to modify priorities and plans based on such input. These priorities and plans shall focus on the following areas: (1) housing and redevelopment; (2) economic and workforce development; (3) education; (4) infrastructure and transportation; (5) healthcare; (6) fixcal stability; (7) family services; and (8) agriculture.
