At the Town Meeting on November 3rd, Chairman Stewart requested of Vice Mayor Hults, a procedure that would be acceptable and approved by the attorney, which would allow us to conform with "Government in the Sunshine" and yet have a group site inspec- tion. A site inspection would be held much as we would have a regular meeting, only on a Saturday or Sunday. It would be posted on the board in the Town Hall so that anyone interested from the community can come. It would not have to be tape recorded, however, we will be able to make comments, write a memo which will become minutes and arrive at a consensus. REGENCY HIGHLAND CLUB With regard to the discrepancies in the landscaping of Regency Highland to the original plan, Mrs. Stewart stated that she had requested permission from the Town Commission to acquire the services of someone to guide us regarding this landscaping problem. She received a letter from Mr. Beasley which she read, stating that his fee would be $275.00. The Town Com- mission denied this request. Mrs. Stewart read the minutes of June 27, 1974 of Regency High- land and also stated that the original plan which had been signed by the C.A. B. has been located. Areas of study and comparison had been assigned to the C.A.B. members so that they could compare the plantings with the or- iginal plan. Each member stated their findings. In the ab- sence of Mrs. Becker and Mr. Rex, their written report was read, and filed in the Regency file. 1 1 CAB Minutes 11/18/76 page 3 After a very detailed comparison of plans, and prolonged dis- cussion, the following decision was made. A motion was made by Mrs. Jaffe that we inform the builder that his new plan is not acceptable. Seconded by Mr. Schubert.
