Dr. Blake is retiring at the end of the month. There will be an unoccupied office upon his departure, and it is big in size. Because every other office is occupied, we should convert Dr. Blake's office into a lounge. It is absolutely essential that this issue is discussed at the next staff meeting a. We need to discuss this essential issue at the meeting. b. We need to discuss all of this at the next meeting

A

Explanation:

As we prepare an email to send to a whole team which could include many people and areas, including higher-ups, is imperative to be clear and to the point.
