OLD BUSINESS A letter dated July 2, 1976 from Regency Highland Associates, signed by Mr. Melvin Goldberger, Trustee, stated that Regency Highland Associates were not aware of any request for decorative shutter ap- proval. When their condominium association is in operation, they will make a study and evaluation and then present their recommenda- tions to the C.A.B. Mrs. Stewart prefaced her reading of Mr. Storm' s letter of resigna- tion by stating that she had submitted his name to be considered for the vacancy on the Planning Board because she felt that Mr. Storm was very qualified to be on this Board and most importantly somebody who had been on the C.A.B. and knows the problems and the community could contribute immensely to the plans that are going to be in the works for the next ten years in this community. Motion made by Mr. Rex, seconded by Mr. Beekman to accept with regret Mr. Storm' s resig- nation. Voice vote--aye--Mr. Rex, Mr. Beekman and Mrs. Stewart. Mrs. Stewart then reported she had asked Mrs. Jaffe, the senior alter- nate, if she would accept the position as a regular member of the C.A.B. , and that Mrs. Jaffe declined due to the fact that she is a full time instructor at the Norton Gallery.
