1. The
meeting was called to order by Chair Quentin Kessel at 7:35p.
2. The minutes of the 19 September 07 meeting
were approved as written.
3. Second Alternate. The Commission now has one Alternate member,
but it is authorized to have two. Kessel mentioned a potential candidate; he will ask Dahn if he knows any one else who might be interested.
4. Bylaws
update. The Commission’s bylaws, as set forth on pp.153-6 of
the Town’s Administrative Procedures, should be updated to reflect the addition
of two Alternate Members and to authorize the Chair to appoint one or both as
voting members when regular members are absent.
Kessel will draft language to this effect for
approval by the Commission and the Town.
5.
Recognition of charter members. Several of those who attended the very first
Conservation Commission (19 September 1963) are still alive, and there was
general agreement that it would be appropriate to recognize them. Kessel will
approach Jennifer Kaufman about getting the Town to do so.
6. Adjourned at 8:33p.
Scott Lehmann, Secretary
