stated that the CAC members are responsible for stating the facts as a repoding agency only and
not as an enforcement agency.
Trustee John Bredemeyer commented that one advantage of having the CAC perform compliance
inspections would be to help tighten up permits, however, feels that enforcement officers should
be conducting compliance inspections.
Chairperson Peter Young discussed his memo dated February 1st regarding proposed By-Laws,
Student Members, Budget Planning, Committees, Assignments, and Special Projects. He
requested that all CAC members review the memo in preparation for a more in-depth discussion at
