First Comments on 12/27/2005 on an On-line forum
about Assistant Clerk's (second Clerk's office version) of unapproved minutes.
[The following was dated today and time-marked as 11:03 this morning. It was received from the Assistant Town Clerk Tammy Ohanesian.
Apparently this is the lastest draft of the now fully implemented Rocky Hill format for the minutes of the meeting of the Town Council for 12/19/2005.
Please note:
This is a TXT/text conversion of the highly formatted MsWord Doc file.
I will try to get this document in form consistent with that format later
there were no "working notes" attached to it nor a link to them
Though the composer of this document alludes to the CGS, the specific citations supposedly relied upon were not provided (Time for another FOI inquiry?)]

[The duly made/seconded motion with vote to move into executive session - present in the Sassano version of the 'minutes' - was NOT reported here. Like the Sassano version (12/23/2005), this Ohanesian version does not properly report the mover/seconder and vote to adjourn the council meeting- making this version technically flawed to.
