A Recessed Workshop Meeting from August 28, 1984 was called to order
by Mayor Louis Y. Horton at 1:30 p.m. in the Town Commission Chambers.
Also present were Vice Mayor Mary Louise G. Blosser, Commissioners John
J. Basso and Betty Jean Stewart. Commissioner William E. Paul was absent.
Also present were Town Attorney Thomas E. Sliney; Town Manager Elaine
W. Roberts; citizens and the general public. Town Clerk Mary Ann Whaley
was on vacation.
The Town Commission continued review of the proposed Zoning Ordinance,
with a copy of the notes taken by the Town Manager attached to and made
a part of these Minutes for reference, along with a copy of a memorandum
of Vice Mayor Blosser which contained some definitions. These were dis-
cussed at length and some rewording suggested, but most were recommended
for inclusion in the proposed Zoning Ordinance,
It was r,uced that a Special Meeting had been scheduled for September
5, 1984 at 9:30 a.m. for the reading and adoption of the proposed
Ordinance.
Discussion ensued, regarding the proposed dates which had been tentatively
set for Town Meetings in conflict with election dates and those meetings
close to the New Year Holidays. It was the consensus that the January
Regular Meeting which had been originally moved from January 1, 1984 to
Thursday, January 3, 1984, should be held on Wednesday, January 2, 1984.
This change will be reflected on the September 5, 1984 Regular Meeting
Consent Agenda.
This meeting was adjourned at 4:30 p.m.
