Having an agreed season is not a viable option to stop the changes from occuring. It can only be of use after the primary need.

In politics (which this undoubtedly is unfortunately), winning elvolves around organization and presentation ( in this case an organized effort AGAINST the proposed season changes).

There is no point whatsoever of agreeing on a season without being organized enough to stop the current proposed changes from passing.
It will require numbers that would be darn near impossible unless funding is offered to a central group that opposes the changes (lobbying essentially in one form or another). This would allow for advertising the issues and the reasoning behind it ie. making aware of the meetings the state has planned to hear feedback, etc.

I see this as highly impossible given the time frame they are looking to pass this by (in time for printing of the next season guidebooks). So, unless someone steps up bigtime, or a group jumps into the frying pan...get ready for this poor choice.
