JUL 24 1990 <br />of the County, that it is her privilege to consider every option <br />that may come before that committee. The option was one that was <br />prepared by Dan Carey's staff, which was entirely different in <br />some respects from the County recommendation; so, when the <br />Committee met, she asked them to table the matter and have a <br />workshop, and that is what is going to happen. <br />Commissioner Scurlock felt the issue is that the majority of <br />this Commission took the position to support the policy that was <br />conveyed to the TCRPC, and he believed the question is can <br />Commissioner Bowman, who voted in opposition, support that <br />position.

She did feel Commissioner Bowman has <br />been put in a terrible position since she did not vote for <br />56 <br />
