Minutes for the Meeting of June 4, 2008 Page 3 The next topic to look at is site design issues regarding green and aesthetic issues. The Design Advisory Committee should be notified when addressing the site design issues. ******************************* BOARD MEMBER REPORTS*************************** Mr. Galaitsis and Dawn McKenna said in 2009-2010 is the ten year reunion with our sister city Antony in France.
