@ Albert: Mr. Oliphant, will you stipulate that the letter that was sent to the Attorney , General was read ihto the record at the meeting on April lLt, 1975? Oliphant: To my recollection, Mr. Goodrich, read an opinion. That he did not have the . letter with him. . . . . Alb: I'm not ask1ng that quest1on, Mr. Cha1rman, I'm ask1ng of the letter that was sent by Mr. Goodrich to the Attorney General stating the facts. Gorham: Mr. Albert is referring to the letter that Mr. Goodrich sent to the Attorney General's office so that he could render his opinion. Do you then say that that was not read at that meeting? Oliphant: It may have. I don't recall. I don't know the extent of the... . INTERRU PI' ION ... Albert: I am asking this Board to make specific note of Subparagraph M especially the last sentence where it is alleged that the pet~tioners are unaware of thelacts given to the Attorney General's office which resUlted in the opinion.

Gorham: I think that it should be made a point of record of this Board of Adjustment that in the event of the Council Meeting held on .April 14 should become a p2rt of this meeting. Oliphant: r've already asked that. . Gorham: It does reflect that in those minutes that matter. Sure. Gorham: Mr. Gorham said that he pointed out at the last meeting that he did not have a
