3. Request for Council to support Resolution from Middle River Terrace was submitted to the Commission and discussed at their most recent meeting.  The Commission agreed to implement a policy requiring notification prior to issuance of building permit and to request input from the surround community.  They are also requiring utilities to provide a list in advance of locations in consideration.
4. Richard Mancuso held a discussion on the need for participation on Committees by Board members and those of the general membership.  It was determined that some of the committees should be on an as needed basis and the current Building Code Ad Hoc committee will sunset soon.
5. Due to Commission re-scheduling some future meetings, it will require the Council to do so as well.  After discussion among the Board, President Ellis was tasked with working with the City to ascertain times and locations that could accommodate the needed changes.  She was further tasked with making those changes and posting them on our web page.

OLD BUSINESS

2. The Ad Hoc Code Committee Report will be presented to each District Commissioner by a small group of members to encourage support for the proposed changes.  The District Representative, one committee member and perhaps one professional will make up the team.  We are currently awaiting the insertion of the ULDR references in the documents to make it easier to direct the changes and once they are received, visits will be arranged as quickly as possible.  This effort is being chaired by Richard Mancuso.
