Subject: Res. 2001-039
Per Comm. Stanbridge, I got in touch with Ted Moorhead of the Scenic
Highway committee. He suggested that Jim Egan, Marine Resources
Council,
Exec. Director also be copied on the Resolution as well as one sent to
Thomas F. Barry, Secretary Department of Transportation. Since the
Resolution specifically says the CLERK TO THE BOARD, I thought it should
be
sent on your letterhead and you will have a copy in your file that it
has
been sent.
Let me know if we need to talk to the Attorney's Office about this being
a
regular format.
