Review of tape recording of the 15 July 1980
Building Code Board Meeting
1. At the City Council meeting of 28 July 1980 a question
was raised concerning whether or not the Chairman of the
Building Code Board had made a motion subsequent to his
appointiment as the Chairman of that Board. I was instruct-
ed by Mayor Christy to research into this matter and report
back to the City Council.
2. At the City Council meeting conducted on 4 August 1980 I
read from the tentative minutes of the meeting which
stated that Mr. Harris made the motion in question and that
the motion was seconded by Mr. Cole.On 5 August 1980 I
reviewed the tape recording of this meeting with a resident
of the Ci~y. This review indicated that the minutes of the
meeting were incorrect. The Chairman of the Building Code
Board had in fact made the motion in question and the motion
was seconded by Mr. Cole. The tapes are still available
in City Hall should anyone wish to listen to them.
