1 MR. KERRICK: I'd like to call the
2 meeting to order, the regular business meeting,
3 March 10th, with a pledge of allegiance, please.
4 (Pledge of Allegiance was recited.)
5 MR. KERRICK: Do we have any
6 announcements? First I have an announcement, we
7 had an executive session with the Tobyhanna
8 Township Fire Department on March 3, '08 from 4:30
9 to 5.
10 Heidi, you had an open space
11 announcement?
12 MS. PICKARD: Yeah. We have an open
13 space meeting and the supervisors were asked to
14 attend to discuss a peer review with Tunkhannock
15 Township. That was at 6 p.m., on the 17th, this
16 coming Monday, and I think the regular meeting is
17 following that.
18 MR. LAMBERTON: Yes.
19 MS. PICKARD: And also --
20 MR. KERRICK: Work session, the
21 joint work session that we requested with the PC is
22 going to be on the 24th, at 3:30 p.m. That will be
23 with the supervisors and the planning commission on
24 Act 167.
25 Do you think we --
3
1 MR. LAMBERTON: What time again?
2 MR. KERRICK: 3:30 p.m. Should we
3 have -- shall we have Pat attend that meeting?
4 MS. PICKARD: We'd like if he's --
5 MR. KERRICK: Are we at that stage
6 or -- Donny? Jamie? Anyone?
7 MR. MOYER: That's up to you guys.
8 I mean, where are we with that?
9 MR. KERRICK: Are we that far along
10 or are we still discussing it?
11 MR. KEENER: Probably might not be a
12 bad idea.
13 MR. KERRICK: Are you available? I
14 should ask you first.
15 MR. ARMSTRONG: Yeah. Either John
16 or myself -- John, from my office, or myself.
17 MR. KEENER: I think we had
18 considerable discussions at the last meeting, and I
19 think we're getting close to the point where
20 something needs to be drafted in draft format for
21 us to consider.
22 MR. KERRICK: Okay. That sounds
23 good.
24 MR. ARMSTRONG: Okay.
25 MR. KERRICK: Hope to see you there.

1 Next on our agenda, consider the
2 minutes, January 7, 2008, reorganization meeting;
3 minutes from January 14, '08, public hearing,
4 zoning map change Creek View Estates; and
5 January 14, '08, regular business meeting.
6 MS. PICKARD: I'll make a motion we
7 approve the minutes with the following corrections
8 to the reorganization meeting of January 7th. On
9 Page 13 it should read appoint Mark Argot to serve
10 as the chair and vacancy board instead of Margie.
11 And Page 23 on Line 5 should read this resolution
12 that earned income tax at one percent.
13 MR. KERRICK: We have a motion with
14 corrections on the floor.
15 Do we have a second?
16 MR. LAMBERTON: I'll second the
17 motion.
18 MR. KERRICK: Motion and second.
19 Questions or comments from the
20 board?
21 Questions or comments on the motion

7 MR. KERRICK: I'll vote in favor.

10 treasurer's report dated March 10, 2008. Total
11 amount for board approval $155,489.09.
12 MS. PICKARD: I make a motion that
13 we approve the bill pack dated March 10th in the

15 MR. KERRICK: Motion on the floor.
16 Do we have a second?
17 MR. MOYER: I'll second.
18 MR. KERRICK: Motion and second.
19 Questions or comments from the board
20 on the motion?
21 MR. KEENER: Yeah. Heidi, you said
22 that that includes the check for the meeting at the
23 end of the month?
24 MS. PICKARD: I believe that it
25 does. I didn't bring my --
6
1 MR. KEENER: Okay. And last week or
2 at the end of last week found that I have a meeting
3 that night, that I won't be able to attend. And I
4 would maybe follow up, see if we could be
5 reimbursed for that.
6 MS. PICKARD: I'll see if Jerry can
7 change that if that, in fact --
8 MR. KEENER: Yeah. I mean, if the
9 check's already cut, I would just send it and see
10 if they could reimburse us for it.
11 MS. PICKARD: Okay. I'll make a
12 note.
13 MR. KERRICK: Make a note.
14 Questions or comments from the

24 MS. PICKARD: I vote in favor.
25 MR. KERRICK: Motion carried.
7
1 Next on our agenda, Ordinance 462,
2 flea markets; and Ordinance 463, fireworks. We
3 just had a hearing at 6:30 and a quarter to seven
4 regarding these two ordinance changes.
5 What's the board's pleasure?
6 MR. KEENER: Do you want to do them
7 separately or --
8 MR. ARMSTRONG: Yeah. Why don't we
9 just do this, since there's more of the public
10 here, we'll start with the fireworks. We'll do the
11 fireworks first. Fireworks ordinance was
12 advertised -- for adoption was advertised in the
13 Pocono Record on February 25, 2008. It's been
14 available at the township offices. It's been
15 available at the Monroe Law Library, as well as the
16 newspaper, the Pocono Record.
17 There was a public hearing this
18 evening at 6:30 on this particular ordinance. It's
19 an ordinance that regulates the use of fireworks
20 and public displays of fireworks within the
21 township; yet, it provides for a permit application
22 and a permit required for the public display of
23 fireworks within Tobyhanna Township.
24 And at this time, any further
25 comments from the board on this particular
8
1 ordinance?
2 MR. KERRICK: I have none.
3 MR. ARMSTRONG: If not, I'd open it
4 up to the public for any public comment on the
5 ordinance.
6 Seeing there is none, what's the
7 board's pleasure on this?
8 MR. KEENER: I'll make a motion we
9 adopt the Ordinance 463 regulating public displays
10 of fireworks in Tobyhanna Township.
11 MR. LAMBERTON: Second the motion.
12 MR. KERRICK: Motion and second on
13 the floor.
14 There are no questions or comments
15 from the board, correct?
16 MR. LAMBERTON: No.
17 MR. KERRICK: Anything from the
18 public on the motion?
19 With none, I'll call the vote.
20 Jamie?
21 MR. KEENER: I vote in favor.
22 MR. KERRICK: Donny?
23 MR. MOYER: I vote in favor.
24 MR. KERRICK: Hugh?
25 MR. LAMBERTON: I vote in favor.
9
1 MR. KERRICK: Heidi?
2 MS. PICKARD: I vote in favor.
3 MR. KERRICK: I vote in favor.
4 Motion carried.
5 Next on our agenda, Ordinance 462,
6 regulating flea markets.
7 MR. ARMSTRONG: Yeah, this is the
8 flea markets ordinance that was also before the
9 board for a public hearing this evening at 6:45.
10 It was advertised for public hearing and this board
11 of supervisors meeting in the February 25th and
12 March 3, 2008 Pocono Record. Full copies of the
13 ordinance were available at the township offices,
14 as well as the Pocono Record and the Monroe County
15 Law Library.
16 The public hearing was held this
17 evening. And what the ordinance does is, it
18 regulates flea markets within the township and
19 provides that they're only permitted within the
20 commercial district by special exception. And it
21 further sets forth regulations, parking
22 regulations, and minimum lot area width, depth and
23 other lot coverage requirements pursuant to the
24 zoning ordinance.
25 And now if the board has any further
10
1 comment on this flea market ordinance?
2 If not, I'd open it up to the public
3 for any public comment on the flea market
4 ordinance.
5 MS. SUE SNELL: Is there also
6 regulations as far as like permits in this
7 ordinance as well?
8 MR. ARMSTRONG: Yes. Well, let me
9 check just to make sure. Well, permits with
10 respect to the township, there is most likely a fee
11 for the flea markets set by the resolution that was
12 adopted or will be adopted at the beginning of the
13 year.
14 MS. SUE SNELL: So that's completely
15 in the --
16 MR. KEENER: It references that
17 90H1B?
18 MR. ARMSTRONG: Right. All required
19 permits and licenses must be applied for and issued
20 to be outstanding. All appropriate fees must be
21 paid including the appropriate flea market or
22 permit fee set forth in the township fee schedule
23 resolution.
24 MS. SUE SNELL: Thank you.
25 MR. ARMSTRONG: Yep. Any other
11
1 public comment?
2 MR. KERRICK: With no public
3 comment, I'll call the vote.
4 Jamie, we're calling the vote on the
5 flea market.
6 MR. KEENER: Don't we have to take a
7 motion yet?
8 MR. KERRICK: We had a motion and
9 second, didn't we? Am I ahead of myself again?
10 MS. PICKARD: Yes.
11 MR. KERRICK: Sorry.
12 MR. KEENER: I'll make a motion we
13 adopt Ordinance No. 462 regulating the flea market
14 use within a commercial district by special
15 exception.
16 MR. LAMBERTON: Second the motion.
17 MR. KERRICK: Motion and second on
18 the floor.
19 Questions or comments from the
20 board?
21 Questions or comments from the
22 public on the motion?
23 Call the vote.
24 Jamie?
25 MR. KEENER: I vote in favor.
12
1 MR. KERRICK: Donny?
2 MR. MOYER: I vote in favor.
3 MR. KERRICK: Hugh?
4 MR. LAMBERTON: I vote in favor.
5 MR. KERRICK: Heidi?
6 MS. PICKARD: I vote in favor.
7 MR. KERRICK: I vote in favor.
8 Motion carried.
9 Next on our agenda, new business,
10 Dr. Vrabec. I don't think you have to speak at
11 this time. We're -- I guess I'll turn it over to
12 you at this time with the letter of credit.
13 MR. ARMSTRONG: Yeah, the letter of
14 credit from Ms. -- from Dr. Vrabec is acceptable.
15 It's been executed by the bank, and I believe Dr.
16 Vrabec has requested her certificate of occupancy
17 permit be issued even though the improvements have
18 not been completed, subject to the letter of credit
19 that we have received, which is acceptable in the
20 amount of $8,000.
21 MR. KERRICK: What's the board's
22 pleasure?
23 MS. PICKARD: I'll make a motion
24 that we accept the letter of credit in the amount
25 of $8,000, subject to the improvements necessary,
13
1 and to allow the issuance of the temporary
2 certificate of occupancy.
3 MR. KERRICK: Motion on the floor.
4 Do we have a second?
5 MR. LAMBERTON: Second the motion.
6 MR. KERRICK: Motion and second.
7 Questions or comments from the
8 board?
9 Questions or comments from the
10 public on the motion?
11 Call the vote.
12 Jaime?
13 MR. KEENER: I vote in favor.
14 MR. KERRICK: Donny?
15 MR. MOYER: I vote in favor.
16 MR. KERRICK: Hugh?
17 MR. LAMBERTON: I vote in favor.
18 MR. KERRICK: Heidi?
19 MS. PICKARD: I vote in favor.
20 MR. KERRICK: And I'll vote in
21 favor. Motion carried.
22 Thank you, Doctor.
23 DR. JOYCE VRABEC: Thank you.
24 MR. KERRICK: Next on our agenda,
25 planning commission reappointments. Rob Baxter as
14
1 of March expires and Joe Miller. They have both
2 submitted letters that they would like to be
3 reappointed.
4 What's the board's pleasure?
5 MR. LAMBERTON: Joe Miller's April.
6 MR. KERRICK: Did I say April?
7 MR. MOYER: I make a motion that we
8 reappoint Rob Baxter for March and Joe Miller for
9 April, to be reinstated on the planning commission.
10 MR. KERRICK: Motion on the floor.
11 Do we have a second?
12 MS. PICKARD: I'll second that.
13 MR. KERRICK: Motion and second.
14 MS. PICKARD: And that is for a
15 four-year term?
16 MR. KERRICK: Four-year term.
17 Questions or comments from the
18 board?
19 Questions or comments from the
20 public?
21 Call the vote.
22 Jamie?
23 MR. KEENER: I vote in favor.
24 MR. KERRICK: Donny?
25 MR. MOYER: I vote in favor.
15
1 MR. KERRICK: Hugh?
2 MR. LAMBERTON: I vote in favor.
3 MR. KERRICK: Heidi?
4 MS. PICKARD: I vote in favor.
5 MR. KERRICK: I'll vote in favor.
6 Motion carried.
7 Next on our agenda, Verizon Wireless
8 land development plan.
9 The floor is yours.
10 MS. KELLY M. OCHREITER: Good
11 evening. Kelly Ochreiter on behalf of Verizon
12 Wireless. And I have with me my witness, Patrick
13 Reardon. Pretty much on the 2nd of February the
14 planning commission recommended approval of our
15 land development plan. We were requesting waivers
16 of four sections of the land ordinance plan, and I
17 believe that we have complied with everything that
18 they requested on the 7th.
19 And Patrick can answer any questions
20 that you may have and he has brought with him a
21 copy of the plans with any changes reflected.
22 MR. ARMSTRONG: For the board's
23 convenience, I believe the waivers that you are
24 requesting are SALDO Section 135-17(L), SALDO
25 Section 135-17(M), SALDO Section 135-17(Q), and
16
1 SALDO Section 135-18.B(15).
2 MR. PATRICK REARDON: That is
3 correct.
4 MR. ARMSTRONG: There's a --
5 MS. KELLY M. OCHREITER: I'm sorry,
6 I believe the planning commission recommended that
7 those waivers be approved also.
8 MR. ARMSTRONG: And the latest
9 township engineer review letter, reviewing this
10 particular project, was dated February 6, 2008.
11 Does the board want to see the plan?
12 I see you have a plan.
13 MR. PATRICK REARDON: I have one, if
14 anybody wants to take a look. I'm not sure if that
15 stack of plans back there are --
16 MR. ARMSTRONG: It's a collocation
17 on a preexisting tower?
18 MR. PATRICK REARDON: Yes. The pine
19 tree in the Locust Ridge Village development.
20 MR. KEENER: Explain why the
21 eight-foot -- proposed eight-foot gravel driveway
22 is coming out adjacent to the existing one foot
23 instead of being part of that.
24 MR. PATRICK REARDON: In the
25 original plan that SBA and Cingular had put
17
1 together they showed this, but did not develop it
2 all the way around. So the township engineer asked
3 us to show this, and thus Verizon Wireless will
4 have to develop that.
5 MR. KEENER: What I'm saying, why
6 doesn't it tie back into the 12-foot driveway
7 instead of coming back and making the 20-foot
8 wide --
9 MR. PATRICK REARDON: Again, that
10 was something that was shown on Cingular's original
11 plans that we just basically -- we got their land
12 development plan that was approved and we basically
13 just copied from an existing standpoint. And Mr.
14 McHale asked us to show that in our plans, because
15 originally we did not show it all the way around; I
16 believe we only showed it here.
17 And then this new part, the reason
18 it's darkened in rather than dashed, this is what's
19 existing and this is what we have to propose
20 because that's what Cingular had proposed. And it
21 was previously approved.
22 MR. KEENER: I think I would have
23 tied it back into the existing.
24 MR. ARMSTRONG: Is there just one
25 carrier on this site right now?
18
1 MR. PATRICK REARDON: Currently it's
2 only Cingular. I visited the site prior to coming
3 over here so if there's any questions, I'm
4 well-versed.
5 MR. KEENER: There was a comment
6 made by the manager of the development about
7 maintenance of the existing tower and some of the
8 pieces, limbs falling off of it.
9 Do you know if that's been addressed
10 at all?
11 MR. PATRICK REARDON: That would be
12 under SBA's jurisdiction. I work closely with
13 them, so I can inform them and tell them that they
14 do need to keep that -- but they typically, being
15 that I've seen a couple of cell sites from a couple
16 of different tower owners, they maintain their
17 sites pretty well.
18 I was up there, like I said, today.
19 I saw one branch on the ground, but I didn't -- I
20 didn't see -- I drove around it and walked around
21 the site. I didn't see a -- certainly not a
22 plethora of branches that had fallen off or broken
23 off.
24 MR. ARMSTRONG: The site is owned by
25 SBA?
19
1 MR. PATRICK REARDON: That's
2 correct, SBA Properties.
3 MS. KELLY M. OCHREITER: If I could
4 just add something, Attorney Rich Williams from our
5 office, who was pinch-hitting for us tonight, had
6 told me that SBA has worked out any issues with the
7 roads and maintaining the site with the property
8 manager, so I'm not sure if you're aware of that.
9 MR. KEENER: Yeah, that was another
10 question that was raised as well, as far as the
11 access in the roads.
12 MS. KELLY M. OCHREITER: Rich
13 Williams has worked through that all.
14 MR. PATRICK REARDON: Rich and I
15 worked with SBA's legal counsel to make sure that
16 they are square with whatever the obligation they
17 had to the owners association.
18 MR. KEENER: With the understanding
19 that Verizon's just collocating --
20 MR. PATRICK REARDON: Right.
21 MR. KEENER: -- which is SBA's
22 responsibility. I wanted to make that clear.
23 MR. ARMSTRONG: Do you know if that
24 agreement is in writing or is it --
25 MR. PATRICK REARDON: What
20
1 agreement?
2 MR. ARMSTRONG: Between SBA and the
3 property owner for maintenance of the road.
4 MR. PATRICK REARDON: SBA is the
5 property owner.
6 MS. KELLY M. OCHREITER: Do you mean
7 and the village property association?
8 MR. ARMSTRONG: Right.
9 MS. KELLY M. OCHREITER: I don't
10 know if it's in writing.
11 MR. PATRICK REARDON: Whatever the
12 covenants of the deed were, which I think Rich
13 provided to you and the planning commission.
14 MR. ARMSTRONG: Yeah, I don't know
15 if the deed went into the maintenance of the road,
16 but I do know they had access to the road.
17 MR. PATRICK REARDON: They do have
18 access. SBA, from what I was told, when they first
19 went to develop the site, they paid a lump sum to
20 the homeowners association. And they've been
21 working together and had to have a working
22 relationship since then.
23 And when we were at the planning
24 commission the first time, a gentleman from the
25 homeowners association came and had some public
21
1 comments to make. So I took his name and number
2 down and I got in contact with SBA, as Rich got
3 into contact with SBA and we basically brought the
4 two parties together and they resolved it
5 separately from Verizon Wireless. We basically
6 were just an intermediary, to make sure that this
7 went off smoothly.
8 MR. KEENER: You're gonna get SBA's
9 signature on this?
10 MR. PATRICK REARDON: Yes. Upon the
11 approval, we'll be FedExing this down to their Boca
12 office, in Boca Raton, to be signed by the vice
13 president.
14 MR. KEENER: That should be -- I
15 don't know that that's one of the comments in the
16 letter, but that should be a condition of approval.
17 MR. ARMSTRONG: I actually think
18 that's in the development plan.
19 MS. KELLY M. OCHREITER: We have
20 addressed all of the conditions of approval. And
21 Patrick can point them all out to you, if you'd
22 like.
23 MR. KEENER: No, I'm saying SBA,
24 this signature should be an additional condition.
25 MR. PATRICK REARDON: I do believe
22
1 that this was in the land development section of
2 Mr. McHale's letter to us, was conditioned upon
3 approval, getting it signed by -- which won't be an
4 issue at all.
5 MR. ARMSTRONG: Since you mentioned,
6 you're going -- everything -- all the comments and
7 requirements set froth in Mr. McHale's February 6,
8 2008 letter you all will comply with?
9 MR. PATRICK REARDON: Yes, yes. In
10 fact, there were three comments in particular of
11 general note that he pointed out in that
12 February 6th letter. And I reviewed the plans and
13 they're there, they're present and accounted for.
14 Just as an example, there is one
15 that said that communication antennas should not
16 cause radio frequency interference with other
17 communications still located in the township. And
18 that was an example of one of the three verbal text
19 notes he wanted to see in the plans. They were
20 addressed.
21 MR. ARMSTRONG: I think one of the
22 issues was -- you were just out there today?
23 MR. PATRICK REARDON: Yes.
24 MR. ARMSTRONG: Is there barb wire
25 on the top of that fence?
23
1 MR. PATRICK REARDON: No, there is
2 no barb wire located on the top.
3 MR. ARMSTRONG: I think the
4 recommendation from PC was to match the existing
5 fence.
6 MR. PATRICK REARDON: Yes, that's
7 correct. I saw that in the letter as well. Yes,
8 the first time I went to the site was when they
9 were constructing it, so there was only holes in
10 place. And I believe that somebody asked me if you
11 remember the fence being there and I said last time
12 I was there, there was no fence. But I was there
13 today and there was a chain link fence, no barb
14 wire.
15 MR. KERRICK: Any other questions or
16 comments from the board?
17 MR. KEENER: I don't see a reference
18 in Mr. McHale's letter about the signature of SBA.
19 MR. ARMSTRONG: So you will have SBA
20 sign the plans?
21 MR. PATRICK REARDON: Yes.
22 MR. ARMSTRONG: Okay. Any action
23 that you take tonight, you can add that as a
24 condition. The applicant is agreeable to it.
25 MR. PATRICK REARDON: Yes. And I
24
1 don't think we need to record it -- as a property
2 owner, we can't record it without their signature
3 anyway. So I mean, we're very much on the hook to
4 have SBA sign and notarize it.
5 MR. ARMSTRONG: Did you provide the
6 township with a copy? Is there a lease agreement
7 between SBA and Verizon?
8 MR. PATRICK REARDON: There is a
9 lease agreement in place. I'm not sure if we
10 provided a copy or not. If so, Rich would have
11 done that previously. And if you'd like to redact
12 his copy, I'm sure we can dig one up for you.
13 MR. ARMSTRONG: Redacted copy.
14 MR. PATRICK REARDON: I work with
15 Rich.
16 MR. KEENER: So you're representing
17 them too or the attorney's office? Who are you
18 with?
19 MR. PATRICK REARDON: I'm with
20 Strategic Communication Services. We're the site
21 consultant. Yes, we have a team working for
22 Verizon Wireless.
23 MS. PICKARD: I'll make a motion
24 that we approve the Verizon Locust Ridge
25 collocation on SBA Properties referenced as Project
25
1 No. 2007-005, subject to satisfying all items

10 Next on our agenda, Shikhman Medical
11 Office time extension on recording of plans.
12 MR. ARMSTRONG: Just so the board's
13 aware, the Shikhman Medical Office time extension
14 and the V&M Realty Lot 9 time extension, they're
15 both -- what happened is, the applicants have not
16 satisfied the conditions.
17 And written into the ordinance, they
18 have to get those approved plans recorded within
19 90 days. Since their conditions have not been
20 approved, the plans have not been signed by the
21 board of supervisors, rightly so. So what they're
22 requesting is an extension of that time.
23 I believe Shikhman is waiting on a
24 highway occupancy permit, and they're requesting
25 the extension of time to be 30 days out from -- so
29
1 once they receive the permit, they'll have 30 days
2 to record the plan, which is probably about right,
3 to give the township time to sign the plan and the
4 applicant time to record them.
5 And I think V&M, Heidi, are they
6 requesting a --
7 MS. PICKARD: I think we just got
8 the plans in the other day and Bob has not reviewed
9 them for a signature. So I think we just need it
10 30 days from today.
11 MR. ARMSTRONG: Okay.
12 MR. KERRICK: Can we do those
13 together or do we need to do them separately?
14 MR. KEENER: I think we need to do
15 them separately because --
16 MR. ARMSTRONG: They're separate
17 types of --
18 MR. KEENER: Yeah, I make a motion
19 we provide an extension of time to Shikhman Medical
20 Office for, I'll say, four months, to July 10,
21 2008.
22 MR. KERRICK: All right. Motion on
23 the floor.
24 Do we have a second?
25 MR. LAMBERTON: Second the motion.
30
1 MR. KERRICK: Motion and second.
2 Questions or comments on --
3 MR. KEENER: Just to comment on
4 that, there was an e-mail on here that said that it
5 was gonna take two to three months. It takes three
6 months, that gives them another month to get
7 everything else done.
8 MR. ARMSTRONG: So what was that
9 date?
10 MR. KERRICK: July 10, '08.
11 Correct, Jamie?
12 MR. KEENER: Yes.
13 MR. KERRICK: Any further questions
14 or comments from the board?
15 Questions or comments from the
16 public on the motion?
17 Call the vote.

21 MR. MOYER: I vote in favor.
22 MR. KERRICK: Hugh?
23 MR. LAMBERTON: I vote in favor.
24 MR. KERRICK: Heidi?
25 MS. PICKARD: I vote in favor.
31
1 MR. KERRICK: I'll vote in favor.
2 Motion carried.
3 Next on our agenda, V&M Realty Lot 9
4 time extension.
5 MR. KEENER: Did you say those
6 conditions now are met and plans just need to be
7 reviewed?
8 MR. KERRICK: The plans came in,
9 best of my knowledge, came in Friday; and Bob has
10 not had -- he's out. He did not have a chance to
11 make sure that it was okay for our signature, so
12 they're asking for a time extension on recording
13 the plan.
14 MS. PICKARD: We wouldn't have been
15 able to sign them and get them to the courthouse
16 today.
17 MR. KEENER: I'll make a motion we
18 provide a time extension to May 10, 2008.
19 MR. KERRICK: May 10th?
20 MR. KEENER: Yes.
21 MR. KERRICK: '08. Motion on the
22 floor for extension to May 10th.
23 Do we have a second?
24 MS. PICKARD: I'll second the
25 motion.
32
1 MR. KERRICK: Motion and second.

15 favor. Motion carried.
16 Does the board have anything they
17 would like to discuss?
18 Do you have anything to add?
19 MR. ARMSTRONG: No. All I have are
20 these ordinances for you all to sign this evening.
21 MR. KERRICK: Okay. We'll grab
22 those before we go.
23 At this time I'd like to turn it
24 over for any public comment.
25 Motion for adjournment.

1 MR. KEENER: So moved.
