ORONO REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING HELD JULY 23, 1990 <br />• APPOINTMENT PROCESS CONTINUED <br />necessary. Peterson also suggested revising paragraph #2 by <br />eliminating all words following the words "further solicitation <br />of people ". She believed that the additional language made it <br />sound as though Council could pick and choose persons they wished <br />to have participate in the process. <br />Bernhardson explained that the purpose of paragraph #2 is to <br />allow applications received between the deadline date and the <br />Council Meeting to be included in the process. <br />Councilmember Nettles believed that paragraph #6 is <br />necessary.
