• Listed as a dependency to Board Maintenance: Create milestones #1088, which is currently being worked on by me.
• Completed a board clean up with the new PM team on 07/26/22, added new Waiting column to establish medium term issue priority.
• Establishing new procedures on how the issues are worked on that may eliminate the need to audit the issues so frequently.

Issues are being actively assessed as we reorganize around Impact Sprints. After the sprints, I'd like to reconsider how we run the board, with the intention that a regular review of the issues will be unnecessary. Until then I am moving this to the Icebox, for later consideration.

*PMs- Please don't take up this issue as I would like to lead the planning of this. Thanks!

Closing this issue as Completed, as the scope in its current iteration is being changed.

This task will be folded into a role description, so an issue will not need to be perpetually open for it.
