But it seems to be taking more than a week to organize the North meeting.
Currently with them being a week apart the North group can't really start
planning any sooner than a week out to keep from confusing people going to
the Loop meeting, so it makes it harder to organize the North meeting. By
being two weeks apart there is actually less opportunity for overlap.

My proposal is to permanently change the meetings to be two weeks apart
thereby keeping it consistent. So the North meeting would always be the
first Thursday of the month.
