meeting scheduled for July 24, 2003. The motion passed 6-0 with Commissioners
ROLLINS and SCHULZ absent.
5. CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING
Chair DRDA closed the public hearing.
6. OLD BUSINESS
There was no old business to come before the Authority.
7. NEW BUSINESS
. Board Member HOWARD expressed concern that a member of the Board has been
absent for the last three meetings. He felt it is unfair to applicants when a full board
is not available at meetings due to the super majority vote requirement. For example,
when eight members are present, an application could pass with two negative votes;
however, when seven members are present, two negative votes would result in denial
of the application.
It was moved by Board Member HOWARD and seconded by Board Member
ABBOTT that Chair DRDA contact the member in question to find out whether
or not that member wishes to continue serving on the Board of Adjustment. The
motion passed 6-0.
. Auuroval of Minutes - It was moved by Board Member HOVLAND and
seconded by Board Member BLAIR to approve the minutes of May 22, 2003.
The motion passed unanimously.
8. ADJOURNMENT
It was moved by Board Member HOWARD and seconded by Board Member
BLAIR to adjourn the meeting at 7:51 p.m. The motion passed unanimously.
