Acting Town Manager Ms. Whaley suggested that Mrs. Maree Fowler be

instructed.
Vice Mayor Blosser commended the Police Department for catching
an illegal passer on State Road A-1-A recently, which she had
witnessed. Mayor Horton recommended that anyone seeing anything
illegal in Town, such as this, should report it promptly to Chief
Cecere so that he will be aware of where the problems are
occurring and be able to do something about it.
• Ms. Whaley asked to be excused from the next portion of the
meeting, since she is one of the six finalists who are applicants
